Many things about Blogger make it a popular choice for middle school and high school classroom blogs. It's easy to create a blog on Blogger, all back end maintenance is done for you by Google, and if your school uses Google Apps for Education it can be added to the list of services your students can access with their Google Apps for Education accounts. There is one thing that can't be done easily and that is moderate students' posts (not comments, posts) before they go live on your classroom blog. But if you have students post via email then you can moderate the posts before they go live.

To help teachers get started on the road to blogging Richard Byrne created a free 90 page guide to using Blogger in school. The guide is embedded in this post. You can also find it here (clicking the link with initiate a PDF download).

You will find a blog and blogger you love on this list!

This is an great read by one of my favorite bloggers.
