First week of "summer vacation"

So, I don't know if this will work for our family but I thought I would try it out. Like most modern families in the United States, members of our family live all over the place and we are all busy. Because of this, many of us feel pretty disconnected. I am spending the first week of summer vacation in a technology course and have been learning all about blogs, wikis, web pages etc. After viewing someone elses family blog and hearing how it has brought his family closer together, I thought I would start one for us. Feel no pressure to post, if this forum doesn't work for you that is ok. I would really love to know more about what is going on in everyone's life though so maybe give it a try. Hope to hear from many of you soon.
