I can't decide if I want an edublog or wordpres.com blog so I am flipping back and forth. I find I like things of both and trying to get into my blog groove to work out the kinks and stop wandering around if the blogosphere lost and frustrated. I think long and hard about what to post and wonder will people be interested, want to read what I write, and worry. It wasn't until I started reading and commenting and learning and sharing with others that my blog began to grow as well my blogging knowledge and skills. Thank you for both for encouraging a newbie and providing a forum for us to learn and grow while reading both of your blogs! Know that I appreciate your comments!

When I joined the staff at the College of Education at Texas Tech in 2001, I learned the motto of the previous dean had focused on cultivating "reflective practitioners." I agree that is a major purpose of our sharing as educators in the blogosphere. Keep on sharing! The rewards are many, and extend most significantly far beyond readership statistics. Personal growth is challenging to measure, but a documented record of thinking like a blog provides is the best way I've seen yet to have a tangible yardstick for our personal learning journeys.
