Tony Vincent's 2011 session about blogs-
Use Posterous!!
Tonyv.me/posterous has great ideas and samples. Files such as audio can be emailed to your posterous site and it goes directly into your blog.

blogs can replace classroom web pages- newsletters, assignments, Dates, work samples, web links, artwork,Videos, pictures, = useful information!
Ipods and ipads allow simple emailing of assignments. Student work can be sent to Posterous easily. It is moderated, so outside posts can appear but have to be approved.
Create a site- send email to post@posterous.com. However- you probably need to go in and fine tune your site. You have "spaces"... Free! Name your space, Emails will go to the address you are given.
Photos- same way.
Your email address doesn't need approval.
