Blog 6 -B- The Blogging Experience So Far...
It is March 2nd and i just spent most of the day yesterday catching up on my school work. Part of my school work load is maintaining a blog (as you see here) but as i was updating my blog i thought of a couple of questions concerning the overall blogging experience. What is the incentive to comment and collaborate on other students blog? According to the guidelines of the blog, we get 3 points if we continue a conversation from a initial comment from another student, but why initiate a conversation in the first place? I did not want to be part of this problem so i spent time going to the different blogs i am apart of and commenting on other students blogs (about 7 quality comments so far, well i hope they are quality). My thinking was that if i give feedback to other students blogs, then they will in turn gain a chance to earn there 3 points and hopefully will reciprocate my collaborating and come to my blog and return the kind gesture. So i am writing this blog to maybe spark peoples interest to check up on there fellow students blog weekly and place one or two comments on their blogs. Make it a habit, when you update your blog with a new posting, immediately go to a fellow students blog and comment on one of their posting. This will enhance everyone's blogging experience and will spark collaboration and learning for the class. Thank you all for taking the time to read this and hey send me a comment back and let me know what you think......Robert White

Thankyou for commenting on my blog. The gesture was very nice and it's also nice to know that the work we are doing on these blogs is not overlooked. I like the oposting you have made here as well. I also enjoyed reading about The Mac computers at J.Colin English. I found an interesting website having to do with history and technology and thought that you might be interested.

Thank you for reading my postings and sharing the experiences with me, also thank you for your comment as well, while i was updating my blog, i noticed that not many people were getting comments, and i think it is important and essential to our blogging experience to have comments and collabarate with each other. That is why your comment and posting the article is awesome and inspiring me to comment on other students pages and help them out. The article is great and i think i might use it for my blog. Thank you again.
