Student blog selected as best among almost half a million 

CQUniversity student Danielle Wolhuter was pretty impressed when a study blog about her 'accident forensics' program was selected among the best, from 429,145 bloggers registered with WordPress.

It was among only a dozen featured on the WordPress 'freshly pressed' home page this week.

Danielle blogged about 'how to make a load of washing highly socio-technical', noting that "one awkward fact of uni life is that you start reading whatever you're studying into real life".

WordPress has grown to be the largest self-hosted blogging tool in the world, used on millions of sites and seen by tens of millions of people every day. You can visit the blog via wordpress.com or direct at THIS LINK.

Danielle is a former SUN (Start Uni Now) student who has since enrolled in the Bachelor of Accident Forensics.
