Blogging Favorites

I like to follow some blogs that discuss education, technology, and cake decorating. I also like to read the Dog Whisper's blog, as she discusses library issues. I like the way she writes, as she's informative, somewhat witty, and always has something pertinent to say. I follow technology & learning's blog, as I can follow what's happening in the world of technology and education. I get ideas of what political and social issues are at the forefront of discussion. I get a heads up about what's happening and can discuss issues with my fellow teachers, principals, and librarians, sometimes even students. 

One of the favorites I follow, for personal interest, is on cake decorating. I love to look at the videos posted, especially gleaning ideas or seeing a "wow" cake. The Ace of Cakes is one such place I like. I've also added a Shelfari site blog to this blog. Already I've been questioned about my opinons about some of the books I've read, as well as made recommendations of what to read to others. My Shelfari blog gets more action than this one, as far as comments or questions go.
After reading some of the articles, and looking for good blogs, I can see how easy it would be to get lost in "blogland". The comment made about finding a good blog is like finding a needle in a haystack was so appropriate. We look for good blogs to read, and there are so many different kinds of blogs out there that what one is looking for, accurate in content, yet relevant, is sometimes looking for that needle.  When that one is found, it's a gem and everyone wants to read it.
