Class Review, Part 1

This class has certainly been different from any other class I've had before.  Personally I have never experienced a hybrid class before and the thought both intrigued and worried me.  I have always had difficulty keeping up with online assignments, probably because I'm very easily distracted when we're on the internet.  But I suppose I figured, what better way to break such a bad habit?  I would say it took me more than a while to get into a blogging habit, but once I did I've come to really enjoy it, as well as enjoy my PWP...but that probably shouldn't come as a surprise considering the topic.  The freedom is amazing, but made coming up with a subject so incredibly difficult for me.  My final decision wasn't even one of my original ideas for a long time, but I'm much more satisfied with it than my others.  In comparison to your typical, everyday class I would say we would not have learned as much as we do in this, since we are given the time to actually go out and experience the world of blogging and writing on the web for ourselves, instead of being told about it.

After finally getting my blogs up and running, I've come to notice that not many of us are really looking into everyone's posts, let alone commenting on them.  Maybe it's just me, but I'm noticing from an almost third person perspective that it's very quiet amongst the "community" of our blogs, save for Jeff's comments he graciously posts for almost every addition to our blogs.  Not to say there isn't anyone commenting on other people's blogs in the class, there just doesn't seem to be very much of it happening on average in our class as a whole, I am also guilty of this.  Maybe it's too early for this community to come around, and maybe it requires something to give it a little nudge.
