Typepad has recently improved its website, particularly in the posting section. Now, we can actually do more formatting of our text using typepad. This change does improve the functionality and flexibility of typepad; adding pictures and photos into our posts will also make them more appealing. However, by adding more and more features into typepad, people may over-utilize the functions and cast a shadow on the actual function of weblogs. In my opinion, we want our post to be short and concise by writing clear passages, and add value to our blogs by creating links to other websites. Including too much details into the post is just the same as creating another web page. Maybe I am too critical, but here is what I think.
We also got a new tab called "Edit HTML", since we are now learning XML, do we have any chance in using this function in Typepad to do our project? If yes, is there someone who can fugure out how to use it and what is the advantage of using this new function?
