OpenAlgebra.com - ePub to Blogger - easy!

After converting my old Algebra Study Guide to ePub format (using a snipping tool and Sigil)... I found that it was just a matter of cut-and-paste to make a web page out of it using Blogger.  After all, ePub is just HTML - and so without too much effort we have:

http://www.openalgebra.com/

Bonus:  Blogger ports to mobile quite well automatically.  So it looks OK on the phone too!

In the admin area of Blogger you can see a pages link.  Click there and then click make new page.  There are lots of templates to choose from too.  You can choose a template that places page buttons on the left, right, or at the top like I did here.  Blogger is super easy to use - and being a Google product it works with your gmail account and integrates nicely with your G+ profile.

Also, Una... Blogger uses full URLs for pictures, so you can cut-and-paste anything from it straight into Blackboard and it works.  This enables easy remixing.

All this is free using Google infrastructure... seems hard to beat!
