blogging about blogging

Just for a while this blog will concentrate on blogging. The "autobiography" course had a mention for blogging so I will try to follow it up with some online examples. This may be a form of "blended" learning. e-learning has failed several times so far but keeps growing anyway. The "blended" description is about mixing it with real life instruction and experience of something.

It has been said that we should assume nothing is ever read that we write. I tend to start a new blog for any problem situation. Maybe it clarifies something. There are too many of them now so I just change the scope. Apologies for the confusion.

A genuine blogger who works hard, posts most days and has a defined content and audience-

Some of it is autobiography. He may include memoirs of earlier careers, but just to show some basis for current claims. Sometimes the text turns up again in Guardian Media on a Monday, tightly edited and including some responses to comments.

Another blog gets to Kurt Vonnegut quite quickly.

Some very similar text turns up in Timequake by the way.

human contact, electronic contact, maybe there can be some mix and match
