Since you found your way to my blog dashboard…why don’t you introduce yourself !

Put yourself on my map!

Or leave a message on my voiceThread

mmmuuummm…..no image or link to voiceThread.

I’m having problems embedding code using WordPress. It is not as easy as Edublogs! I’ve just copied and pasted the code from Frappr and voiceThread to both my blogs (comparing the 2 tools)

Edublog – easy. i just pasted code in & the images & links work fine.
WordPress – not so easy. As you can see above the Frappr code embedded the toolbar info, but not the map itself. And for voiceThread nothing appears.

I know, I know, I’m new to WordPress and I haven’t learnt my way around it yet (actually I haven’t done any of the tutorials, just jumped in and used it). I’m sure when I go looking I’ll find out how to insert the embed code correctly. However I’m also new to Edublogs (and haven’t done any of their tutorials either) but it worked fine there!

A tick for Edublogs for making embedding code to other gadgets easy! If you would like to introduce yourself – go to my edublog site.

I am exploring WordPress to evalute and compare it against other blogging tools. Up until now I have been using Blogger.

During the CCK08 course I noticed a lot of people using WordPress and it was voted the best blogging tool in theĀ Top 25 Tools list on Jane Hart’s website so I thought I’d check it out.

I am also using Edublog to check out it’s features.
