Stefans start Net11 and 5 most important things for blogging

O.k., I suppose I am somewhat of a late starter, but it took my some time to overcome several technical hurdles. After speaking to the network administrator it became clearly that these people did not have any switch for the supportive / helpful mood.

At first I had to recognize that the Wlan I normally use is blocked for blogserver, telnet and ftp.
Great! So what to do. I decided than to try the network of my local university.

Superb, blogs allowed. Unfortunately they decided for financial reasons to work with Linux, clearly not to supportive for all kind of free of charge standard downloads.
After hours of unsuccessful attemts I decided to give up.

Now I finally made it, got a network without blogging restriction and a normal windows nt system. So now I hope to be able to catch up slowly.


So here is my idea what are the 5 most important things to keep in mind in respect of blogging:

1. Be aware that the net is open to each and everybody as such you can find a great range of things in it including your blog so think about privace.
2. Moof users behave appropriate but some have negative intentions like to rip you of doing harm your computer so one has always to be cautious.
3. As such everthing should be approached with reasonable common sense, e.g do not enter banking and credit card details or personal information, avoid downloads from unknwon sources. 4. Make the bog itself clearly sturctured it helps readers to find their way through.
5. Think about what you want to achieve with your blog first, and then choose the appropriate content and layout.
