OK, I will be the first to admit. I didn't have a personal blog (or any blog for that matter) until this course started. I am loving checking out lots of educational blogs, among others, to get some great ideas. I am even learning that when I have a "brilliant" idea (HA HA) that if I go blog it quick, it might help me now and someone else later.
There is one challenge though...time! I get so sidetracked sometimes in reading a blog then linking to someone else's blog that links somewhere else. Get the idea. Yeah...the dishes stack up in the sink and the kids are screaming for dinner while I am "blogged down" in reading! OK< not really that bad but you know what I mean! I have got to learn to take little chunks of knowledge and leave the rest for another day. I have added a few blogs to follow onto my list but I have been resisting temptation to add others. It is just too much to keep up with.

ReplyDeleteGet the idea?? No, I have absolutely NO clue what you're talking about. Never happens to me at all...yeah, right!! Good grief that is the story of my life. The next thing I know, I've wasted a couple of hours. Well, I shouldn't say wasted, because I've probably found oodles of great resources and then some. I laughed out loud at your "blogged down" comment. I get so far behind in my reader it isn't funny, which is why skimming the titles is so very important.
Sharing those ideas via blogs is a great idea. You never know who might latch onto it or say, "That's what I've been looking for!". It's a great feeling when you get that comment from no where expressing something along those lines.
I don't read everything in my reader. I first read the title of the post. If that strikes me, then I skim the little part of the posting that my reader shows. Finally, if I'm still interested, I read further. I only read the whole posting of about 1/3 of all the items in my reader. Plus, I check my reader at least once a day, so I don't get so overwhelmed.
