Craig Hughes's Project

Hi, 

My project revolves around the creation of a Blogger site.  The site will be used to highlight the work being carried out by Digi Môn Digidol, - http://digimondigidol.blogspot.co.uk/  and will include a range of information including:

• Courses near you
• Simple "How to's"
• Video clips
• Useful links.

The Blog-site will form part of a number of blog sites including an overarching website which will be used to do similar roles across North wales.

First Task - Deadline 27th March

I will use Screencast to create a "How-To" for YouTube.
This will guide the user through the processes involved with creating a YouTube account, uploading video clips, maintaining copyright, promoting their channel and potentially generating income.
