Thing #12

Great articles on the etiquette of commenting on blogs. Everything I read made such good sense. Two things that caught my attention and were mentioned in several of the articles were: it's just not nice to write mean comments and make sure your comments are specific.
You know what? I think my 2nd favorite thing in this whole "Playground' journey has been commenting on other SBISD people's blogs. I loved it. I have looked at a few blogs along the way but was hesitant to make comments. This "thing" was helpful in giving me the push I needed to "blog comment." I also think that once you have made your 1st official blog comment it becomes much easier.
I also posted comments on 2 blog sites outside of the SBISD playground. Both of these blog sites I found from the "Cool Cat". What drew me to these blogs was the titles of the blogs. And yes, in case you are wondering, I did check in on the teacher who is trying to decide about a crown for her broken tooth. I promise to keep you posted.

I think that the fact that so many people need to be told how to be polite while blogging is a sad testament to our society! Just because you aren't looking someone in the face doesn't mean you can be rude, obviously you should always be polite.

What outside sites did you look at? I'm having such a hard time finding blogs that I want to comment on.

I am also working on Thing #12, and commenting is new for me. It is a little hard to get started doing it, but hopefully I will be enjoying it as much as you are soon. You have some great ideas and I enjoy reading your blog.

Hi Wonderweiss.
Thanks for your comments. Sorry it's taken so long to reply. I went to the beach and left all technology behind! I found several intersting blogs on the bottom left hand side of "How to Create Your Circle of the Wise". I just looked at blogs that sounded interesting.
Good Luck!
