Blogging- some examples and info

Here are a few links about blogs, blogging and using them in classes and as teachers.
Will Richardson is very much part of Web 2.0 and School 2.0- his blog is Weblogg-ed
http://weblogg-ed.com/

Reach Every Child has a pretty extensive list of blog links
http://www.reacheverychild.com/feature/blogs.html

and MiddleWeb has some that are specifically middle school blogs

Remember if you find a blog you like- make it come to you. You can subscribe so it will come to your google reader page. Most blogs will have a subscribe button that you can click, or copy the url, go to google reader and click add subscription, then paste it in the space. Organize your blogs with folders, and you can soon be as behind in your reading as I am- but it is all there if and when I want it. If I had to go check blogs to see what is new, I never would get to it.

Also, you might enjoy David Warlick's 2 cents worth blog.

Technorati and BlogSearch (through google) both are search engines that just search blogs for the topic you are interested in.
