I've created an account and can already see it's using a Wordpress backend. http://kjarrett.21classes.com/ Peter, I like free stuff as much as the next guy, and run my own Wordpress blogs and many for my district because it's free, but ... there are many, many advertising-supported services in the edtech space that you can pay extra to remove the ads from. ePals comes to mind. There are others. So let's keep an open mind and look at this tool for what it's worth. If it will allow teachers in my district to easily blog with all the power and functionality of Wordpress for essentially a few bucks a year, I'll promote it heavily... -kj- Hey Will, thanks for the heads up.

Peter, I like free stuff as much as the next guy, and run my own Wordpress blogs and many for my district because it’s free, but … there are many, many advertising-supported services in the edtech space that you can pay extra to remove the ads from. ePals comes to mind. There are others.

So let’s keep an open mind and look at this tool for what it’s worth. If it will allow teachers in my district to easily blog with all the power and functionality of Wordpress for essentially a few bucks a year, I’ll promote it heavily…

Am I the only one who finds this twisted? Umm, did you just recommend a service for educators where they must pay money in order to remove advertising from the environment of learning?

Am I the only one who finds this twisted?

I think this may be just the tool we want to use here with students as the cost per month is reasonable although it is free if you allow Google Ads.
