Blogging about Blogs

It's time to start expanding your blog reading list! There are thousands and thousands of blogs on the Internet from which you can learn, so today you will spend time researching other blogs (outside of our class) to follow. Here's the criteria for following other blogs:

1. The topic must be appropriate for school. Use good judgement!

2. The blogs you add to your reading list need to somehow connect to what YOU are interested in pursuing after high school (college and/or career oriented.)

3. Be sure to follow blogs that are active- if a blog does not have many posts (or recent posts), don't follow it.

4. You must follow at least three new blogs.

Then....
Once you have found a blog you want to follow, add it to your Reading List. Then, when you finish finding three blogs, post the URLs to your blog (see "Link" when you are creating your blog post) and explain what each blog is about and why you chose to follow each blog.

Here are some recommendations for finding blogs:

Do some google searches for blogs related to your interests- newspapers, businesses, sports all use blogs. Try to find credible (real, believable) blogs to follow so you have a better chance of getting good information.

A pretty good list for blogs for college students- see if you can find something interesting!
