Screencasts on community blogging

Citizen Journalism, Client updates, Technology

I’ve created eleven screencasts for the Northwest Area Foundation’s Horizons Community Blogging Project.

The topics:

Why blog
What to blog
How to blog effectively
How to promote a blog
How to use WordPress basics
How to embed images
How to embed video
How to customize a blog
How to manage blog comments
How to set up new bloggers

Although these community blogging screencasts are specific to the Horizons project and to WordPress MU (Multi-User), those involved with community blogging projects might still find them helpful.

They vary from 6 to 20 min. in length. I used Camtasia Studio 4 to create the screencasts for the web, as well as to burn them to a DVD-ROM.
