Why Blog? Part 2.
One of the great things about the internet is that I’m getting the best training and development from around the world, not just in my geographical location, and I’m doing this through the very means that I am supposed to be teaching. The interactivity that is now available means that, perhaps, someone might learn from me too. Some of the best practice I have been able to copy learn from has been found on the web. Some of this has been on YouTube or from other people’s blogs (interesting to note that many of the ways I learn are blocked in schools).
People seem to use blogs in three main ways:
1. As an online diary
2. As a way of displaying news
3. A mixture of the two
I hope to use my blog as a mixture of the two. In the main, though, I will separate my ideas so they are more useful. If i’ve spent a day at a conference, it is probably more helpful to the reader if split my blog up into different posts covering different subjects rather than one big blog covering the day’s events. This means less reading through stuff that is irrelevant.
It was useful to read Your First 10,000 Blog Posts are the Worst as it gives people like me hope. If I’m 100% honest I’m not sure why I’m blogging, but talking about it certainly isn’t the reason. Blogging about blogging is like having meetings about meetings. With that in mind, I’m off to find something to write about.
