Blogging

To Blog!

First of all when thinking of blogging we have to look at the name. Blog. Blogging. Blogger.Blog.The name speaks for it self. Kuddos to whoever thought of it. As a matter of fact,let me google that real quick.

GOOGLE SEARCH ANSWER:The term "weblog" was coined by Jorn Barger in December 1997. The shorter version, "blog," was coined by Peter Merholz, who, in April or May of 1999, broke the word weblog into the phrase "we blog" in the sidebar of his weblog.

Ok, now that we have that covered, lets get back to the basics.

I think that blogging was a great idea to use as a tool in the classroom. It allowed me to express myself freely and conveniently from the comfort of my own home.It also allowed me to learn more about my classmates and their opinions.It was like having a conversation online. The topics we were given to blog about were attention grabbing topics. I always felt that I had something to say and I enojyed the sense of liberty I felt when blogging.As a student I felt more engaged to blogging than lets say writing a paper because it was less restricted.

Sure, I would continue updating my blog.There are always fresh new topics to write about , and its something entertaining to do when I have some extra time on my hands.
