There's quite a long review and brief tutorial of Roon here: http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/roon-is-a-slick-easy-to-use-blogging-platform-you-may-want-to-try/ I particularly like the comment in the summary "Sometimes we get caught up in complex blogging platforms, plugins and more. Roon takes all of that away and ensures that you focus on what matters the most – your words." A rich feature set isn't always an advantage. Roon certainly isn't a competitor to WordPress, but it does make it easy to just get down to writing. For students that can be quite an advantage.

I just tried Roon out and made a post (on my Mac, by the way). I wanted to try it to see if it was something to share with students. It was pretty easy, though figuring out how to change the title of the post from "Untitled" was frustrating (I assumed the "Header" was the title...not so. You just click on it after you save and can change it in the sidebar.).
I'm not sure what the point of giving your blog a title was when it posts as your user name and never shows your blog title. My advice: use your blog title as your user name.
Not sure if I will use this with my students, but it is a simple and easy format. And free. Here's my simplistic post: http://mrsorman.roon.io/untitled

Blogging, or more specifically writing, is a daily routine for us, here in hongkiat.com. In the process, we’ve accumulated a lot of resources that would be real helpful in jumpstarting one’s blogging career. Via massimo facchinetti, malek

We all hear the benefits of blogging touted throughout the blogosphere. Heck, if you haven’t heard any of the so-called benefits, Jeff Bullas has written up 10 of them, any one of which is enough to convince me.
Today, however, I want to focus on one very specific benefit (not on Bullas’ list): A blog serves as the hub of your content marketing wheel.
As the hub of your wheel, all other content marketing efforts radiate out from the blog and shoot back into the blog.... Via Jeff Domansky, Martin (Marty) Smith

I like this analogy and blog positioning.

Agree with Jeff. Love the analogy and the conclusion. I use Scoop.it as my hub because the feedback loops are faster. In my case, extending the analogy a little painfully, one wheel fires with Scoop.it in the hub and some of those "firings" are transferred over to the blog.

Totally agree with you Marty on time factor and it's getting tougher all the time. Scoop it has a very quick feedback loop as you say.

Couldn't agree with this infographic more. A blog is the hub of any successful content marketer's wheel.
Our experience with the Two Pens blog is in line with this infographic. Our brand has grown appreciably, along with growth in traffic and leads. The one thing left out: I find blogging fun and like exploring ideas in words and pictures.
