Colbert News Hub

Since day one, I have used WordPress to build the basics for this website. It is a great tool to use, and is an easy, user-friendly platform for people just starting their journeys into the blogging world. It has a great support network of FAQ’s and “Support” and “Help” Forums together with regular and widespread WordCamps makes this a great community for any budding young blogger.


To learn more about WordPress, CSS and HTML, and blogging in general, I found Lorelle on WordPress, The Dash and Smashing Magazine. For up-to-date comedy news and happenings Splitsider, Comedy News and Laugh Spin are a must.
