This would be akin to Blogger.com or Wordpress.com, where you would just sign up for one. Of course, I plan to have some good administration/restrictions in place, but only to keep it clean.

I do it as a form of therapy. It helps me focus on what happened that day and why we are doing this. The message of FIRST gets lost in the excitement of the competitions. The six weeks is where the real magic takes place. What happens to the students in that short time frame has a lifelong impact on them. Keeping the blog helps me deal.

Yeah, I've already fallen behind on my blog. http://oneupdave.co.cc

This would be more or less to share experiences with others, help newcomers or sponsors to see what it's like to be a part of the program firsthand (no pun intended), etc.
