The world is a much smaller place and the fact that we can all connect and 'talk' to the big thinkers in our field is a great thing.<BR/><BR/>JoanneJoannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15759498202590649670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6465490282991652816.post-18559135784599368662008-01-21T12:49:00.000-08:002008-01-21T12:49:00.000-08:00Wow, I didn't realize how the links can bring in o...Wow, I didn't realize how the links can bring in others who are interested in your topic! That is astounding. It took me a moment to figure out how Will found my blog. The light is now on! I can just imagine how my students would feel if they were to have real conversations with experts on what they are studying. Way too cool. Thanks for responding Will, I love your book and plan to use it in some professional development with my staff. The explanations and practical applications for Web 2.0 tools in the classroom are great.elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06929237275893310292noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6465490282991652816.post-92229348121912027282008-01-21T12:03:00.000-08:002008-01-21T12:03:00.000-08:00How cool is it that Will commented on your blog? ...How cool is it that Will commented on your blog?

What about the providing links aspect combined with our thoughts, do you think that takes the blogging to a new level? Is the blogging for ourselves or for an audience or both?elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06929237275893310292noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6465490282991652816.post-58075462942156556642008-01-20T13:07:00.000-08:002008-01-20T13:07:00.000-08:00I like Richardson's clear articulation of 'real bl...I like Richardson's clear articulation of 'real blogging' but I can imagine transformative analysis and synthesis being the product of journalling or simple blogging.
