This "thing" was centered around the importance of commenting on blogs. Commenting on posts does more than just show that you have read the post, it also allows you to take a stance on what was written, offer up suggestions, and show the reader you care about what it is that they have to say. As I touched on in thing three ( guess I got a little ahead of myself) commenting can create a since of community by allowing people to feel involved in what is being said. I enjoyed commenting on other peoples blogs. Each time I did so I tried to expand upon something they had mentioned or offer support or suggestions. My goal for my comments is for them to be helpful to the author regardless of the topic at hand.
Blogs I commented on within the class:
I tried to pick blogs of people who were not in my class or people who I had never met before. I did this so I could practice getting my thought s out there to a new group of people and maybe even open future communication webs for those of us with common goals.
I found many personal blogs through Pinterest to comment on, both education based and ons of other topics. Using pinterest allowed me to start by clicking on something I found interesting, and go from there.
