Second thoughts about blogs!



My 31 day blogging challenge become the ten day challenge and was put on hold.

I am now using Blogger for an introduction to blogs with my classes to get students up and running. As they improve their skills, they are switching over to Wordpress for the additional features. Edublogs advertisements are very intrusive these days, so I still use it with one class as a class blog but in reality, I have become a Wordpress convert.

I'm also finding that blogs are a good form of communication. However, they really can become addictive. You only have to Google "blog cartoons" before you feel like dying of embarrassment when you begin to recognise yourself!

There has been a break of about two months since I last posted due to my reality check.

Magical Bill -

I've really enjoyed reading your blog! As I was looking around, I had an idea. I've been talking about transparent growth a bit over at my blog, and I was wondering if you'd like to write a guest post about your own professional growth since starting to blog. Interested? Let me know.

Best wishes -- Janni Black
