This new blog is being created as a result of finding a great blog.  I loved the design as well as the content.  It introduced me to Weebly, which is a tool for creating web sites and blogs.  It has beautiful design templates and fantastic pictures for your use. 

The inspirational, fabulous web site belongs to Steven Weber, the Director of Secondary Instruction for Orange County Schools in Hillsborough, NC. I have to admit that I loved the look of Steven's web site and blog so much that I am giving him the ultimate compliment - I am using the same template for this blog!  I hope Steven doesn't mind!

It wasn't just the design of Steven's web site that caught my eye, it was the content and his use of blogging.  Although I have known about blogging for years, and I've even had a blog (to which I rarely posted anything), I don't think I really understood how blogs could be useful to me.  So many blogs I had seen were what I considered to be irrelevant;  they were boring, had no ascertainable purpose, and were, in a word - junk.

Something about Steven's blog served the purpose of causing an Aha! moment for me.  Now, rather than trying to put everything I think about and learn onto my web site, I see that I have the perfect avenue for sharing new insights, new resources, current events and most of all, develop a collaboration with others.

I have much to share, and am anxious to start writing.  Just as soon as I make some updates to my web site and get a newsletter out!
