An interesting video – I had seen a similar one about the difference between blogs and wikis so I’m feeling pretty OK about it
14th August
I watched the video but can’t get into “blogger” at school so will have to wait until I can before I do that – I already have a Global2 account and have set up a blog for that so at least I have an idea of what to do!!
15th August
I have set up my blog and shared the address, made my first post and got excited!!
15th August
I’m on the list and raring to go – if only this worked at school too I would be right into it…..
And I’ve just realised I can add the other blogs I’m a part of – wow!! I have done more than I think I have J

“Boys blogging books” looked good – pity it closed when the boys moved on to other pursuits.
The Edublog awards slideshow was interesting and gave me some ideas I will investigate further, especially apps and other information sources – I will investigate the nominees for  Best web tool:  Twitter (see box below) Glogster EDU DropBox  (I have an account already) Edmodo  Pinterest and Best mobile apps: Flying Books App, Evernote, Night Zookeeper Drawing Torch,  DropBox and Fluency Finder 
29th August
I set up a Twitter account ages ago but I haven’t really used it – not sure I am that committed to it at this stage

Here it is!!
