A platform for sharing

Blogs can serve as a collaborative meeting space, as well as an archive for ideas.  You're going to develop and use a blog this semester for this very purpose.  More information about this project will be loaded onto Moodle this week, but in the meantime it will help you if you start visiting blogs. 

Not sure where to start?  Google something like, "100 most popular blogs", or "top fantasy football blogs" or "most popular knitting blogs"  or "top blogs about wine"....or whatever subject interests you. 

While you're visiting blogs, look out their design, images, format, voice, etc.  In other words, start to view them with a truly evaluative eye.     

Keep me posted on your favorites!

a blogging we will go...

What kind of blogs do you view?  I'm a big fan of croggers...craft bloggers.  I'm crafty myself (in the artistic sense of the word...not the sneaky kind of crafty).  One of my fav craft blogs is www.designspongeonline.com.  This is one of the most successfully monetized blogs as well.  Big bucks for the woman who started this blog!  Pretty impressive.  Post a bit and tell me what you view.  Please.

Welcome Social Media Marketing Grad Students!

Hello students.  I'm looking forward to getting to know you this semester.  Next week you'll be setting up your own blog that you'll use to share information with your classmates and me.  I won't blather on here now!  You've got enough to read.  Do bookmark my blog, however, and check back in through the week.  Also, I'll see you on Facebook once you join our group.
