Opening the Blog

Hello all,
As you can see, the traffic on this blog isn't exactly setting the world alight! Maybe it is just because we are in the summer break period but is everyone away? I have been as guilty as anyone else, my excuse being that I was away for three weeks but I will try to post more often now as I come across things on the net which could be of interest. I was wondering what the computing group think about opening this blog up to other members of the local U3A's. Perhaps it is too early, let me know what you think. I suppose it may be more useful if we made it more general rather than just for computing. In this case it would have been better to choose a different title - great hindsight there. Some time ago Malcolm and I discussed the possibility of setting up something which could allow members to raise questions which other members could then post answers or helpful comments. On reflection I realised that a blog could serve this purpose. We could maybe use the category attribute to flag various interest groups e.g. computing, gardening, art etc. etc. In addition it could be used to post event dates and reminders etc. If we wanted to go ahead with such a venture I will need to look into the possibility to change the blog title or maybe we will need to set up a new blog dedicated to this purpose. Now that most people are connected and somewhat net savvy it may be a useful facility which we as computing group could offer to our local U3A.
Please post your comments so that I will know what people think about this idea.
