By request, here’s the current version of my WordPress Getting Started Guide. It’s specifically aimed at staff members in the Brecksville-Broadview Heights schools, but others may find it useful as well.
This document covers WordPress 2.1, sidebar widgets, and all of the plugins we have installed. It was last revised March 1, 2007.
Taste of Tech 
John, I have used this WordPress Guide from you and it was very helpful. Also, Nanci S. and I want to thank you for all of your personal support you have given us with our blogs. You have always picked up the phone when we called and walked us through some of the confusion. We are now able to assist people in the district when ready. I have already helped Joe B. and Cathy M. I look forward to hopefully teaching a class on this concept in June. Thanks again John.
