This is my third active blog. I've blogged before, obviously. But it hasn't always been successful, and my blogs don't have many readers. I have used Blogger in the past, so I'm sticking to it here too. My other blogs are Storybook Projects and City Mouse Country Mouse.
In the past I have used Livejournal, which I would consider to be a blog community. I've had many "friends" and readers on that site who were tuned into my posts.
I haven't used blogs with my students yet. I do, however, note their advantages and difficulties. I haven't thought of a useful platform for them as of yet. But it is in the back of my mind!
I read blogs pretty avidly. I like to read mommy blogs, and cooking blogs mostly. My current favorite mommy blog is Offbeat Mama. I also love two cooking blogs: Weelicious, which is a kid-pleasing recipe site, and Challa-peno, which fuses Mexican and Jewish cooking.
I also read some blogs once or twice, it other's share their opinions or whatnot.
I can't wait to share your cooking blog links with my "chef" husband. (He isn't a chef in "real" life, but he definitely could be!)
ReplyDeleteAs I read through everyone's blogs I am beginning to see ways to make a blog more interesting so that others want to see what happens next. I can't say that I like blogs that have visually busy and distracting advertisements, but I'm liking what some of them have to show and say.
