How (and Why) to Comment

To view the blog at anytime, you do not need to register or sign in. You can just read, enjoy, and use these tech tools.

However, I hope you will use the blog format to leave comments or suggestions for how you have used each Web 2.0 tool in your classroom...or even a suggestion for how another grade or course might use it. Also leave comments for new ideas, new ways of doing something, shortcuts, tips, or anything that would help someone else with these Web 2.0 applications. That's what Web 2.0 is...interactive online sharing and creating.

If you would like to leave a comment on any posting, then you will need a google account, which is very easy and safe to create. Just follow these simple steps:
1. Click "(#) Comments" at the bottom of a post.
2. Type your comment in the box under "Post a Comment".
3. Comment as "Google Account".
4. Click "Post Comment".
5. Sign in to your existing Google account or if you are new, go down and click on "Create an Account Now"
6. Fill in each line/question. When you are through, it will take you back to the comment screen.
7. Type the word verification (those crazy squiggly letters).
8. Click "Publish Your Comment" or "Preview". (Your comment will not immediately show up on the blog. It goes to my email for preview first.)
9. To get back to the blog, click the blog "Title" above the comments posted.
10. When done, Sign Out in the top right corner.
