Thing 10

Google readers make blogging so much easier. I have one, and I am glad I do, because blogger made me when I left my first comment. I love how organized everything is. It is easy to keep up with friends/people you follow's new posts because they are all right there for your reading pleasure. You can read the title and first couple sentences to see if in fact it something you are interested in reading or not. Since I plan to use blogging in my classroom one day I will have every student subscribe to a reader so they can keep up with each other and their assignments. Also, I will require my students to comment on a few friends blogs each week so this will make it easy to find blogs they are interested in and quickly comment without wasting precious classroom time to find a blog. In my personal life I follow quite a few blogs, have facebook, pinterest, homework, and I waitress, SO any time that I can cut back on I will. My google reader makes checking out my favorite websites quick and easy, PERFECT for my busy life. :]
