Wow! I almost forgot about having this. I set up this blog for a previous LIB class, over 3 ½ years ago. It was my first experience with blogging (and actually, my only experience). I’m not very technology savvy so it was a huge accomplishment for me. I still don’t completely understand all the ins and outs of blogging, but I’m ready to learn.
I do not read any blogs on a regular basis. I have logged into tumblr.com a few times, but that was a long time ago. After reading my own information, I wish I had gone back and continued with it. However, my wish is about to come true with the beginning of this new class.
I believe content sharing is a great thing. Looking back on one of the subjects I researched in 2008 (Organ Donation) it reminded me of something that was very important to me, and could very well help someone else too. The value of posting true and accurate information is priceless, and including reference sources can save someone else a lot of time and effort.
Although this class is only a few days old, I am already looking forward to learning bigger and better things. Now that I’ve had a kick-start to my memory bank I remember how useful my previous intro class was and I would be very surprised if this one isn’t as good, or even better. Let’s do this!

Hi, Greg. This is John, I'm in the LIB 204 class as well. It is actually interesting doing a blog... I didn't think it would be and wouldn't have done one if not for this class.
Anyways, I agree with you that "true and accurate information is priceless." Unfortunately, I don't think that blogs are a good place to find accurate information, though they are fun to read for sure.
Don't worry too much about the ins and outs of blogging. It's all one big learning process as you go. Besides, it's easier to learn from experience through trial and error.
I do like your setup. Looks like you put a lot of thought and consideration for entries from previous courses.
I'm glad you're so exciting about this class, which in turn made me more excited about it. I've never taken a LIB class before so hearing that you've had good experiences in the past reassures me. I look forward to reading your further blogs and renewed energy towards them. Good luck!!
