Creating an avatar was a blast!! It was like shopping with none of the guilt or frustration! I could do that all day. It took me a minute to get it posted into my blog. At first I tried pasted the html into the gadget title line and got an error message. I saved it as a jpeg and saved to my desktop , but that didn't seem to work either. The third time was a charm. I can see where using avatars would be great for student or anyone who is concerned with preserving anonymity online for their safety.
The video "Blogs in Plain English" found at Common Craft was really good, and I plan on using at future inservice with my staff. When I talk about following blogs, some teachers look at me like I am a weirdo.
I enjoy reading blogs and follow many on various topics. I have a personal blog, although I do not post faithfully. I have wanted to start a library blog but have been intimidated by those who do it so well. I am glad that this project has given me the opportunity to just start, and hopefully I will improve with practice.
