My New Blog Home

I have been longing for a Wordpress blog now for a while and I stumbled upon a tutorial that guided you through registering a free domain and using a free hosting site, that link is here:http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/how-to-build-a-self-hosted-wordpress-blog-for-free .  So after much messing around with this and teaching myself how to use Wordpress via FTP I have finally done it!  So my blog is moving to the following address:

http://mratkinson.co.cc

Come and join me in as I explore using technology to teach, learn, and lead!
