The Blogging Continues

Though our discussion on blogging was brief on Monday, I came away with a few nuggets of advice, in preparation for submitting my mid-term blog, as I am sure others did. Danielle, made the commented that used Microsoft Word to make sure her blogs was the accurate length and that her spelling was correct. Though I have been blogging for the last few weeks, I had not thought of using that tool in checking my spelling and making sure that my posts were of the desired link. So tonight as I put my blogs together, I actually took the time to do that and it was pretty neat...lol!
In doing so I found errors that I would not have otherwise noticed. Just being careless in that matter, made me recognize that I need to so that for all of my posts from here on out. That advice was very much needed. **Thanks Danielle*** :-)

Also during our group discussion the topic of engaging and inputting text references in the blog came up. And though it was a bit of a surprise to some, it is something that I have found myself doing automatically in most cases. I guess I just wanted people to understand what I was saying and why I was saying it. Just having that group discussion as a prelude to turning in our blog was beneficial because it prompted me to go back and check my own posts.

Just being able to talk to my peers, and getting insight from Professor Corrigan in class, helps me because in the beginning I was not a "blogger" or even one who thought about blogging. However over these last few weeks and with the quality of the pieces that we are reading and enacting I think I could see myself as LaFreda Thomas, blogger extraordinaire someday...lol! I look forward to the remainder of the semester and the opportunity to increase my overall quality of blogging.
