Blogging...

I had been debating on participating in blogging for a while now. However, today I was inspired to try blogging by a comment posted by a friend of mine who teaches school. She posed the question to students asking how they feel about class blogs. In response, although no longer a student, I stated that I felt blogging would be a good tool to help students hone their writing skills - assuming certain writing rules are established.

What are your thoughts?
