Looking Forward to Homework

by morgret on July 26, 2007

Yes, I’m actually looking forward to doing homework! Last week I attended the trainings at Bruce Clay as part of the contest they sponsored. Just before the training I went to the Community Next Viral! conference.

I came away from the trainings and conference with lots of homework — pages of notes of ideas I want to try and changes to implement for the project I’m a part of (OER Commons) in addition to our organization’s main web page. I’m also part of a committee redesigning the webpage for a non-profit amateur radio convention, so I have three non-profit sites to keep me busy. When my 90 days is up (and I’m sure The Lisa will hold me to that date), I’ll write about progress on all three sites. Presuming I can still write by then. By that time, I may never want to see a computer or website for a nice, long time.

The SEOToolset from Bruce Clay will be of great value for my work on these sites. The Toolset automates some of the tasks I had been doing by hand, and does other tasks I have not had time to even attempt. We’re a small organization and SEO is only one part of my duties, so some of my homework will take some time to implement, but it is homework I am going to enjoy doing. Now if I could just get a HousecleaningToolset and LaundryToolset to automate some other aspects of my life, I’d be set!
