Blogging

Hi all,

Again, I am impressed with the level of detail you use and your obvious commitment to exploring issues thoroughly. These are probably the most thorough blogs I've seen in a 100 class yet (and I've taught more sections of it than I can remember). I also enjoy reading through the comments you are leaving. If you are not reading comments, you are missing out on valuable information and viewpoints that might really be of use to you, so try to make sure you are at least scanning comments here and there. And, of course, make sure you begin commenting if you have not done so yet -- I don't grade (in the beginning) on commenting, but I do begin to do so once we get to the third and fourth blog (and we're just about there). A blog is, in essence, a large dialogue with many authors, and it is designed to work around commenting as well as the basis for the commenting: the post itself.
