Library 204 - Blog reflection #1

BLOG REFLECTION #1 TOPIC
This is a previous blog I set-up for my Lib. 3 course. This is as far as my blogging experience goes. It was a lot less difficult than I initially thought it would be. In fact, I think it is as easy as emailing, it is just public. Sadly, I do not have any blogs I read on a regular basis. I was really busy last semester, but I would like to start "blog searching" and see what is out there to read. My opinions on blogging vary. I sometimes feel they are a little invasive, but I guess it is up to the blogger on the contents of their blog(s)...duh. On the other hand, I think a lot of people out there probably have some interesting stuff to blog about and think blogs are a form of entertainment. I see some value to utilizing blogs in a library environment. I am not sure if opinions can be considered of use in any type of research, but again, a form of entertainment...yes.
WEEK 1 experience in our online learning environment. Nothing surprising...not yet anyway. Nothing disappointing yet either, but hoping it will stay that way. I am open-minded and optimistic about this experience.
