Thing 4: Commenting on other blogs

Having others commenting on your blog to see what other type of opinions are out there besides the individual who posted. With this feedback the author is then able to see some suggestions about that particular topic. This create a sense of interactions such as having a face to face conversation, just without the physical presence of seeing someone else face. Reading the 10 techniques to get more comments on your blog, i found two important things i thought were very important. One of the findings from the readings, gave a tip to be open ended to never say everything that needed to be said. I felt this was very useful, because if an individual feel that everything is stated he or she would not feel his or her opinions would be valuable to the post. Another finding from the reading of your comments stated that make a comment heart-felt to others postings. This helped alot because people are able  to tell if you mean something or not.
I chose the Your Comments and 10 Techniques to get more comments on your blog readings to do this assignment on. I decided to chose these two readings because of the information and tip each article gave. They both were very insightful.

I chose the following individuals' blogs Miranda's 23 things, Taylor Bumpus, Vanessagreen, Elizabeth Paige and Jessica Stewart. I chose Miranda's blog because her blog was more relaxed with the wording and the her feelings seemed easy to related to. Taylor Bumpus's blog was chosen because i like his cool avatar, really eye catching. Vanessagreen's blog was chosen because i liked how she listed the 7 and 1/2 habits of Lifelong Learners on her post to refer back to. Elizabeth Paige's blog was chosen because i like some of her ideas specifically how she is planning on using her blog in the future. Finally, Jessica Stewart's blog was chosen because of her ideas. All of these individual's received encouraging comments. I wanted first to start off by getting insight of the different individual's blogs.
