Week 1 Things 1-4

Already have a blog through edublogs. I would like to see which is easier.
My Thing 2 comment on which habits of lifelong learning are easiest and hardest -
easiest for me is thinking of myself as competent learner. I think this goes very well with my belief that at a library you can learn anything! Hardest habit - begin with a goal in mind. I love to learn new things, and often do. But then I forget those new things because they had no real "place" in my life. I can't tell you how many times I have had to reteach myself about pivot tables on excel! I have never really learned it, maybe because I only need that tool once a year or so for a report. Next time, it will be my goal to actually learn it.

I also have a blog on edublogs, and I was doing the comparison as well. I think blogger's editing and layout features are much easier to use, although I haven't done much in my edublog page except use a template.

Keep feedback in your blog! I will check back often.

I agree the layout seems easier on blogger. What I have trouble with is content. I rarely have a coherent thing to say!

I use edublog as it it not filtered by our district. I have started using Blogspot for the 2.0 work and am enjoying the different templates.

I agree about not having much to say on my blog. I tried one with students last year as a means of evaluating a database we were trying. They never really got into it either.

I think this year I will try a blog to just keep a journal type entry of library updates, both for students, staff and library assistants. How do you see using yours?
