2Blog in Purple Mash  is a simple and versatile way of setting up Blogs for the classes, groups and individuals within the school.

Blogs are managed and viewed from the Sharing tab on the Purple Mash Home screen.

Create a blog for a particular class topic, a particular piece of work or any other project.
Teachers can view and approve blog posts and comments before they can be seen 'live'.
Blogs can be viewable by selected groups, selected classes, by the whole school or they may be set up as public.
If a blog is public then members of the public can also be set to comment on blog posts.
Children can be set up so that they can add blog posts, comment on others' posts or have view only access to blogs.  Access to each blog is easily customisable.
Children can attach their work to blog posts and it will be "live", so if a child has (for example) created a game in 2Code, that game will be playable from the blog.
Children can create their own Blogs using the My Blogs tool.  Any child made Blogs are private and viewable only by the teacher and child unless the teacher makes them visible to others.
