Group Blog Set up - 21st October 2011

Today, group members, Charlie and I have created our group blog - in addition to our group are Taylor and James, however, were unfortunately not in on this day and unable to take part - Charlie and I, therefore, took matters into our own hands. From creating our group blog we could post our individual posts onto the blog to show our specific participation in the construction of our, soon to be, practical experimentation/analysation etc.
      Charlie firstly began setting up the blog; we both decided and agreed on an overall group blog link being grammarmedia-zero, however, used a temporary basic blog title of 'charlie ollie tay james' as we found we should wait for a full group decision from all members. Charlie then continued on creating a welcome page and also adding links of each member to the group blog. While this was being done, it was my job to do the design of the blog - how it looks/feels and the mood it presents. It was my decision to choose the blogs font, colours, and general look in order to relate to the subject matter; I found my choice of the simple template and cool, smooth colours effective in portraying a blog that isn't too over exaggerated or dramatic, while also making the posts and text clearer for the readers.
     Overall, we found setting up and creating of our group blog very successful, but more improvement and development is still yet to come.
