My PLN and Vacation

While I was on vacation, I neglected to take care of my Google Reader. I left almost all things technology in the cloud! Now, I am making an attempt to catch up on all things technology! I am currently following about 80+ blogs. That is certainly a huge amount but because Google Reader allows me to scan and peruse a brief portion of the blog itself, I can dispense with the blogs effectively and efficiently. Take my favs first and then the prolific! I have discovered that I have become very "up-to-date" on the happenings within the educational arena! YAY!

These are my PLN friends. From 2¢ Worth to Dangerously Irrelevant to Tipline-Gate's Computer Tips to Weblogg-ed, I discovered these bloggers in interesting ways. I looked first of all for people that I had heard at conferences. Those were the "no brainers"! It is interesting that the rest of the family was gained via recommends within these blogs to Twitter microbloggers! Sure, I follow some fun stuff on Twitter but I am also following an eclectic group of educators from around the world who have made me aware that because of them, I know more about my craft than before I was part of the cloud! How very lucky I am.

I wonder how many of my colleagues can say the same?

And that's how I feel today!

PS Looks like today was about blogs!
