What more can I say, last week we passed 100,000 edublogs and we’re extremely happy about it :)
Well, OK, I can say a bit more, in fact we’ve currently got more like 103,000 blogs, separated over four sites (63K on edublogs.org and 39K spread across the student sites).
In September at edublogs.org alone we racked up 268,638 unique visitors, who dropped by 904,053 times enjoying 13,701,840 page views while sucking up almost 500Gig bandwidth.
Phew!
And to add to that we picked another new webserver, introduced upgrades, synced up with your webmail for invites and generally had a very busy time of it.
And October is going to be just as fun – we think you’re really going to like some of the things we’ve got planned.
So thanks for being part of our first 100K… and happy edublogging!

Congratulations James – there is certainly a lot of interest in Edublogs amongst the teaching community. Teachers have been quick to realise how simple and safe they are to use – and most of all how useful a learning tool that can be.
Thank you for helping educators embrace the ‘new paradigm’ of learning that our students are equipped and ready for.

Well done tadpole killer.

100K blogs is great but you need to improve your support service. I have been trying to get a new password and it is not being sent to my email. What do I do now? Call? No, there is no number to call. Email? No email available. I have not been able to update my blog. Does anyone have any suggestions?
[Reply]
Erik,
a. it’s Sunday & b. if you send emails full of CAPITAL LETTERS to support you shoouldn’t expect a hurried response.
I’d recommend a free blog host that provides email support, phone numbers and spends sundays resetting passwords… if I knew of one.

This is my 33rd year of teaching and creating this blog has been a recent highlight. I am keen to hear how other Visual Arts teachers are enjoying showcasing their student work via blogs.

I have been building an education sharing platform using edublogs for past 2 weeks. Glad to be one of the 100,000. : )
I am also keen to learn about other edublogs users’ site – a good way to learn from one another, especially on the availability of technical possibility in incorporating to the site.
But there does not seem to be any where I can locate others’ website like wordpress has. The closest I have seen are sites of the working personnels’ sites in offering helpful info, but not other users. Pls advise.
[Reply]
I am glad I have found you and are part of your massive set of edublogs. Though can stop long to write this – still playing with my widgets and plug ins…! Have no idea where my pics are uploading too yet… lol

Thank you, James, for making this site for educators. I’m still novice, but I hope to be able to make an exciting blog myself and to use the technology for my EFL classes. I’d like to tell my Japanese colleagues about the site, too. Arigato!
