Welcome!

We love blogs! There seems to be a great deal of confusion about the whole blog thing. Here at N the Blogs we intend to do two things:
1. Help you find blogs you'll enjoy reading. We've found some good ones out there in the blogosphere and brought them N for you.
2. Share our thoughts about blogging, hopefully expanding your knowledge about blogs and give you some ideas about using them yourself.

Be sure to leave us your comments, because we're N this together.

Using Google Docs in Your Blogs

I just discovered Google Docs. Since Google owns Blogger, they have developed a nice relationship that allows for a more purposeful use of Blogger blogs. Here's the way it can work. Create a doc or spreadsheet at http://www.docs.google.com/ then upload it to your blog. If you already have a doc on your hard drive or another website and want to post it on a blog, simply choose the upload option at Google Docs. A few simple settings to tell Google where your blog is and presto, your doc is online.

Possible uses:
Employee handbooks-- complete with photos and videos once you post them to Blogger!
Saving any doc in electronic form off site for emergency purposes
Posting portions of that book you've been writing so that the world can finally read it; maybe you can find a publisher!
Sharing the text of your big speech to the Lions Club
Turning docs from community organizations into a simple website-- membership forms, bylaws, etc. Even post the minutes from meetings and the treasurer's report.
Anything you've already got typed that you either want someone else to see, or that you want saved for the future.
