Still Tweaking

O.K. I'm still trying to get the hang of blogging. Please bare with me. I created a blog and added my first post as soon as I read our instructions for session two on the class blog and prior to reading the "How to" chapters on blogging (Weblogs:Pedagogy and Practice & Get Started by Will Richardson). That was my first mistake. I should have read first then created my blog. Needless to say I discovered that my first post was not blogging but journaling. If I'm understanding the reading correctly, true blogging involves reading content which you will be able to link to along with analyzing and synthesizing that information to fit your audience. One question I'm trying to answer is in reference to the content, am I reading only other blogs? Is it anything (article/journal) that is online? Can it be something I've read in an educational book that isn't on line? Also wondering how and where to add links on the blog. I'm going to continue to experiment and search for the answers to my questions. Wish me luck.
