Web 2.0: Collaborating with Other Student Blogs!

Now it's time to start collaborating with your classmates.

1) Go to your Dashboard and enter the URL's (found in the comments section on my blog) of each blog to the 'Blogs You Are Following' section on blogger.

2) Post at least 2 comments to different classmates' posts. Choose a classmate that is across the room and not sitting on your right or left. The comment will be related to one of their posts and something you learned about them or any contribution that is positive.

3) One of the comment you post should contain a link to another student's blog. An example would be: "Check out Sam's blog, his pictures are amazing!"

4) If someone posts a comment on your blog and has a question, please respond.

Using Google DOCS


1) Log in to your Google Account and go to Documents
2) Create a new collection (folder) named: LASTNAMEWeb(insert your Period #) and share the folder with dporfido@wood-ridgeschools.org. So if it was my collection, I would name it: PorfidoWeb2 if I was in 2nd Period.
3) Create a new Google Document, drag it into my shared folder. Title it Social Networking. Then using proper spellings and grammar identify the term social networking and how it relates to your life. What is Facebook to you? What should be included on a profile? What should be left off?
