I think blogging is an excellent way to communicate information quickly and easily. It allows for a different style of interaction amongst groups of people. Combined with news readers like Sage or Feedreader, blogging greatly simplifies knowledge sharing and problem solving. But even with all the benefits of blogging, I have yet to fully catch on to the blogging movement; call me old-fashioned, but I still hold on to preferring traditional methods of reading print materials or talking in person.
Prior to this class I viewed blogging as a waste of time, for I knew people who spent hours posting personal diaries and useless information. However, I've learned through this course that blogging is here to stay and that it is being used for valuable purposes, whether it be for politics or in a corporate setting. So I better hurry up break out of my traditional ways and get caught up with the times!
Many thanks to those who shared really valuable information in regards to the projects. It has helped tremendously. That is where the blog gets its highest value, in the sharing of knowledge.
