Week Two

Hello everyone,

You're doing a great job on your blogs. I've really had a great time 'surfing' the different pages and seeing all your photos, posts and comments. Thank you for taking time to answer my blog question also.

One of the great aspects of blogging is that anyone can use them for almost any purpose. Current research says that there the blogosphereare has over 70 million bloggers and it's growing every day. Common uses of blogs include, journals, news, columns, editorials, collaborative writing projects, and publishing research.

Here are a few examples of blogs that you might enjoy.

Hi, Nicole!

It would be my honor for me to answer your second question first!

Anyway, to make a blog is not so difficult to me. In class, according to your direction, I made my blog very easily and pretty faster than other my group members. But as you know my problem, my blog was locked because they identified my blog spam blog. I still don't know the reason. Anyway, I made a new blog today. The middle address is "anneknue".
I hope this blog will not be identified "spam" again. ^^;

Now I am full of hope and expectation because of new blog.
See U in class!

Hi Nicole !!

Any problem i am faced with is just one thing that i am not a digital friendly person. Did you notice that my blog is not well docorated? i want it as fashionable and unique as others. Unfortunately, i can make it. i need some help from other trainees, who are gooooood at it. However, i love leaving my comment here. it helps me to practice my english and keep in touch with other trainees. keeping my blog is a wonderful experience in this program.

Hi Nicole,
It was not difficult to make my own blog. With your easy-to-understand and step-by-step instruction ,it was easier than I had expected.

Thank you very much for your clear comments to my question.
We made our blogs with you, so it was not difficult for me to make mine. But I couldn't leave my comments for several days for unknown reason. Anyhow one of my classmates solved the problem and now I can communicate with other trainees, using the blog.
Thanks a lot for letting me have a chance to make and use this blog.

Dear Nicole

To me using computer is not easy one but I may enjoy using technic from this experience. Thank you very much giving many ideas about teaching. What I want to ask is that Sam corrected our Koglish which we used and that was helpful. Your words on the boards help me a lot and if you rectify the some Koglishes, it would be great!!!!

Hi, Nicole!
In the first session, when I heard from your blog assignment, I thought it was very useful way to improve our skill. Now, I notice that it's amazing and wonderful as I can understand my classmates more through this. Sometimes I have a little technical difficulty in posting my questions and comments. However, as time goes by, I will be able to deal well with this blog. Also, I wonder how I can upload music. I try to research soon.

I enjoyed blogging and applying some pictures and gadget during your class. But still I don't know how to use a music gadget which can listen music and let visitors listen my favorite song. That was one of my difficulty I didn't have an answer. I don't know it's because of a lack of my computer skill or misunderstanding English. If I had a enough time, I might find a solution. Now,I didn't join your class and lose a little interest in blogging. However I'm happy that anytime if I want to, I can visit your blog and keep in touch with. I think it's the most thankful point with this. See you!

Hi, Nicole!
Frankly, I'm poor at operating a computer. Making my blog was not difficult thanks to your help. I am trying to comment as many as I can. See you.
