In the game…
I’ve sat on the sidelines for too long, and I’m tired of the bench. Actually, I haven’t even been on the team; I’ve been a spectator. Even that is a stretch. In reality, I haven’t even been in the ballpark. I’m talking about the “blogging” game. Other than Mr. Dunning’s blog, I’ve never even read one. I certainly have never posted a comment on one. Yet I read books like Wikinomics and The World is Flat, and I try to stay up to speed on Web 2.0, and I realize that collaborating on ideas and actively contributing to the world’s discussions are critical components of an educated and informed citizen in the 21st century. So I am stepping up to the plate and starting to blog. My passions are Jesus, leadership, sports, high schools, and all things Faith Lutheran so I expect to blog about such things as the days, weeks, months, and years go on. I value your reaction to my thoughts and look forward to joining you on the blogging team.

Welcome to the blogpsphere. There is always room for another voice. I started to blog earlier this year and have learned much about blogging and about myself. I share in your interest of Jesus Christ and education and look forward to reading what you have to say.

So, you’ve jumped from being an outsider to an active participant. A question to consider: what has changed in your world now that you’ve made this change in activity? I know that this summer when I joined a YahooGroup for the high school I used to teach at, and also joined Facebook, I ended up making contact with all sorts of former students. So, my world is larger, has more long-term contacts, but is also busier.
