Creating a WordPress blog is a new thing that I have never experienced. I figured that there would be a lot more freedom on the display of my blog but it was more restrictive than I thought it was going to be. I went through multiple different themes and even though it specifies no black and white writing I choose the blog that the pages were in black and white strictly because I felt as though it gave organization to the blog. I however for convenience added on the sidebar a pages link so people do not have to strain their eyes to read the page names. I was a little confused on the organization of the categories with the initial ideas of each topic, so to be more straight forward I added those to both the set up category and the category that they are attained to. I&#8217;m excited to see how next weeks addition to the blog will play out because writing post so far have not been extremely difficult but once we get into projects I want to see how much more difficult it will be.<\/p>\n<p>Adding the RSS: I have always seen this but never actually knew what it was about. I figured that out today when I was beginning this project. I displayed two and did gender equality. I choose this topic strictly because I feel like even though the class is a focus on gender and technology many people in the world care more about gender equality and how our world is treating each sex. I find it interesting and always wanted to know how blogs added those, so this was a fun opportunity to figure that out and understand what it was all about.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This week I thought that customizing the blog was harder than creating the blog.
