RSS Choices

a. What RSS reader did you chose and why? Because the Google site had started without me, I decided to "date" him. I went on a short date with the flaky one, and set up an account as well as a page, but am not sure where it will go. As long as we don't have a committed relationship and as long as they know we agree to date others, I can continue with a clear conscience.
b. What “non-classmate” blogs did you subscribe to? and c. What made you chose those blogs? This was fun! I chose http://technorati.com/blogs/www.boingboing.net mostly because it was fun to look at and had things I want to go back to when I feel more confident in blinging up (or boing-ing up) my own blog. It is a bit overwhelming but I am intrigued. What can I say? As I connect to these big guy blogs, I do wonder if they have trackers imbedded in their site that now links them to me.
My second choice was http://edtechpower.blogspot.com/ mostly because she is linked to so many other blog sites, and I thought that would be a great way for me to focus rather than wander. The link she had to Cool Cat Teacher actually lead me to my final choice....
http://edublogawards.com/2007/best-teacher-blog-2007/ where the blog awards abound. If you look to the left, you will see a list of blogs to vote on. Below that is a link list where you can actually look at the sites that are currently being voted for. I especially got a kick out of a first grade class blog, Mrs. Cassidy's. On hers, she has a yack pack where it sounds like a person can contact the class by talking to them. Crazy! This best teacher site was fun to search around! That doesn't mean I have a clue about how to do what they do, but I certainly can see the possiblities! That's half the fun!
