@whitneykilgore @catherinecronin @francesbell That is an interesting idea; some are able to have conversations on blogs, but many are not.
Director of Training & Knowledge Management + Educational Researcher + Professor + Poet + Wikipedian = Liminality + Actor-Network Theory + Open Education
@JeffreyKeefer @catherinecronin @francesbell @bonstewart Bon mentioned recently that blogs used to have more ‘life’ in them (comments)
@whitneykilgore @JeffreyKeefer @francesbell @bonstewart my fave blog posts are conversations 🙂 eg @cogdog et al here http://t.co/d9J4McbAaA
@catherinecronin @JeffreyKeefer @francesbell @bonstewart @cogdog Great post and conversation- how do we drive that dialogue? Tips?
@catherinecronin @JeffreyKeefer @francesbell @bonstewart @cogdog …For our Students.
@whitneykilgore @JeffreyKeefer @francesbell @bonstewart I think @cogdog models it well – openness, humility (“I don’t know…”) & asking Qs
@catherinecronin and does a blog have to have consistent style of posts? I hope not @whitneykilgore @JeffreyKeefer @bonstewart @cogdog
@JeffreyKeefer Here’s an interesting example of Twitter/ blog connections http://t.co/KDAXY5zR3Y @whitneykilgore @catherinecronin
@francesbell @JeffreyKeefer @whitneykilgore wow. @KateMfD is such a beautiful writer, & human being. last comment = perfect re: blogging 🙂
@francesbell @JeffreyKeefer @catherinecronin I love @KateMfD her authentic open sharing is beautiful. I’m too guarded, must work on that.
@whitneykilgore @JeffreyKeefer @catherinecronin @KateMfD Learned recently that as well as caring/ accepting care we shld care for ourselves
@whitneykilgore @francesbell @JeffreyKeefer @catherinecronin I learned to blog as a commenter first, so it’s been a conversation for me.
@whitneykilgore @francesbell @JeffreyKeefer @catherinecronin For me, both blogging and Twitter are about listening. I’m a very slow writer.
@whitneykilgore @francesbell @JeffreyKeefer @catherinecronin The year has shown me there’s a weave of care around us all, that I trust.
@catherinecronin @whitneykilgore @JeffreyKeefer @francesbell @bonstewart No formulas. When it happens a nice bonus but it’s not my goal.
@KateMfD @whitneykilgore @francesbell @JeffreyKeefer same for me, Kate. through commenting, I found conversations, connections, a voice.
@catherinecronin @whitneykilgore @francesbell @JeffreyKeefer I don’t think common blogging advice to academics or students reflects this.
@catherinecronin @whitneykilgore @francesbell @JeffreyKeefer It’s all sold as (another) speaking/selfpromoting task.
@KateMfD @whitneykilgore @francesbell @JeffreyKeefer agreed! same with Twitter… much advice is about mechanics rather than person/emotion.
@catherinecronin @KateMfD @whitneykilgore @francesbell @JeffreyKeefer fascinating discussion and I of course agree:) all about the convo
@KateMfD @catherinecronin @francesbell @JeffreyKeefer as a PhD student required2blog but too much like forum prompts lacks the “voice”
@whitneykilgore @catherinecronin @francesbell @JeffreyKeefer I feel anyone required to blog will struggle with voice. But it’s possible.
@KateMfD @whitneykilgore @catherinecronin @JeffreyKeefer a good struggle – mine is now no longer employed – my voices are many, on 1 blog?
