A dog without the mess! I had a lot of fun checking out the world of widgets!
This has really made me want to create my own blog so I can add more personal touches like, "A bible verse a day" or other things that don't really fit into my educational blog. I hope you play with Silverdore and give him his ball!
Are you getting comfortable with embedding code? I would still have to do this more to say I'm comfortable. Embedding my widget was different than embedding the video in an earlier blog post.
Do you belong to other online communities? Are relationships formed online as meaningful as face-to-face relationships? I don't belong to other online communities. I have this thought that spending too much time on the computer is not good, just like TV. I prefer being active and outdoors. I teach grades 6-8th so I get many e-mails each day at work. It try to catch up on my personal e-mails at home too. I see the merit, as long as the amount of time spent doing it is monitored. I've spend all day online doing various things and wished I hadn't given up my whole day.
I think everyone should be cautious of talking to strangers online and not giving out personal information. Relationships can be formed online, but only to some extent.
Why do you think My Space and other social networking sites are so popular with kids today? It's a way to keep in contact with others, share photos, and meet new "friends." I think there may also be a sense of freedom and doors that open to some kids who may find kids with similar interests outside of their school.
