PLN's

This is my first experience with PLN's. I have learned that PLN's will allow a person to have unlimited information at their fingertips. Exploring the different sites, I discovered there is information provided that I would find otherwise, because I wouldn't even know to search for it.

In social bookmarking, I decided to join delicious.com (www.delicious.com/lschaeffer). I discovered there are many people with much information to share. It is refreshing to know there are others exploring and discovering some of the same topics. Since this is my first experience with social bookmarking, it was intimidating at first, but once I explored the site, I found it to be easy to create stacks and follow others.

In professional networking, I first tried to join arted20.ning.com, but never received an approval email. Thinking I must have typed my email address incorrectly, I tried to join again but with no luck. My next choice was rezedhub.ning.com/profile/LindaSchaeffer. I was approved right away. I choose to leave a comment.

When I went to create a blog on BlogSpot, I realized I must have started to in 2008 but never posted anything. This is my first experience blogging myself. This is my second time to type this post. The first time when I was finished typing, I selected publish post. Then the screen went back to the log-on page and all my information was lost. I have read other blogs and have followed "professional" bloggers. I hope that my blog can be just as useful to others someday.
