Blogging - the season is in full swing

The BAPP arts season is in full swing - that is - everyone is busy busy working and studying.

The topic of this blog is blogging!

some thoughts:

1. good thing to do - it is all about communication and being a digital scholar (Weller)
you can start/add to conversations - say if you agree or have a differing point of view - or add with links - it is dynamic because it is ever changing

2. commenting takes time - so make a rota and plan some time to do this (in smaller amounts - but like the time you might give to your social FB etc.)

3. don't worry if there are quiet periods - but the best way to get some 'traffic' on your blog is to go to other blogs

4. all the blogs can be cut and pasted to a word document for easy access - they are listed on your own blog - or I just added to my feedly that aggregates the blogs for me.

here is the link for the BLOG ADDRESSES

I will add to this blog as I journey round the blogs for this trip - I am shopping for change to Reader 1 - and am now looking at Jessica D's blog for some ideas... https://jessicadinmorebapp.blogspot.co.uk/2017/02/task-1b.html

I have also noticed that Eleanor is adding to many conversations...

Here is a site with some advice for blogging -  maybe adopt them to the BAPP Arts philosophy - you are in control of your blogging.

You might think this advice is a bit orchestrated?
