#4 Blogging about blogs.

"Thing #4." Comment on some blogs... well.... I comment on blogs all the time so the random 2 will not be an issue.  However, imagine my dismay when I went to comment on fellow classmate blogs and they did not exist!  This has presented quite an existential quandary for me... do they exist or not... what is the truth?  How shall this be reconciled?  Stay tuned..... 

Finally success!  I have begun perusing the blogs of my compadres.  It's actually quite interesting!  Commenting is so very important.  It is a good way to measure the pulse of your readership and to gauge how your post was received.  It's also a great networking tool.  Sometimes you can find others with similar interests in the comments section.  It's also nice to receive feedback from the community at large.  I know this as I have absolutely zero comments!! Ouch!! 

My first blog to view was the lovely and talented Nicole!  She's a great help in class!  Thanks Nicole!

Well, good thing I looked at Delma's page.  I didn't realize I needed to discuss my blog's future usefulness!  Thanks Delma!

Suzette taught me that if you try to put an anonymous doppleme up it shows you as a bald naked woman with a surprised look on your face!!  And Esther has the cutest doppleme ever!!

Wow, I was 5 blogs deep and didn't even realize it.  On Joshua's blog he discusses reading one of the many recommended blogs discussing blogging as a future in education.  I really enjoyed the post and plan to set up a twitter account to use to alert my students to upcoming events!  Thanks Joshua!

One of the many blogs I frequent on a regular basis is Allie Brosh's Hyperbole and a Half.  Witty and relevant, Allie's illustrations are used quite frequently in memes and are very recognizable.  She very kindly allows the use of her images in the classroom as long as you give her credit.  It's one of the ways I make content relevant for my students. Thank you Allie!!

Science Sparks is a great blog for finding lots of interesting and fun science facts and activities.  In my class we just made glue from milk following the same protocol they have listed on the site.  I tried to comment as there were several things that help the experiment be more successful.  However, it seems they have comments disabled.  Hmm?
