So many blogs, so few worth reading

So I searched for subjects relevant to me: LEGO and creative writing, not together of course. I started very specific with both, LEGO MindStorm NXT 2.0 and poetry. I was given one match total and that was a poetry sight. This was the case with both types of searches. I decided to focus on a more general LEGO search with LEGO MindStorm. This still found 0. Only when I searched for LEGO were any sites found and then I had to wade through blogs not worth the screen they were displayed on. Remember when we use to say, "Not worth the paper it was written on."?

I think I can do without Technorati. In order for great blogs to be available, the blogger needs to know about Technorati. Now, I know I had a barn when I was growing up (I did not actually live in it) but Technorati is just not well known to the general public that I hang around.

I was also very disappointed "education" was not a category.

Yum, that was del.icio.us

I attempted several searches on delicious. I found the results very helpful. I have recently been given the opportunity to lead the LEGO MindStorm afterschool club. I searched for building ideas for not only the MindStorms, but the WeDo as well. I found a lot of great information.

Also, the word for next year is I will be a traveling LA teacher, as well as the librarian. If I keep my bookmarks in delicious, I can access my resources from any and all classrooms I may be teaching in throughout the day.

As for the students, they are not assigned a single computer. They can be working at several computers throughout the day. If they could save their sources on delicious, they would not have to search again for those great sites.

DELICIOUS!
