Thing 3. Technocrati and Searching Blogs

I knew there had to be a way to just search blogs and that I didn't know what it was. Now I do. I also just couldn't get the Blog List gadget to work and switched over to link list. I made a link to the White House so I could follow our first blogging President.

Trouble with Blog List

I have tried a couple of times to add the Blog List gadget and save a list of some of the blogs I like. For some reason, it just isn't wanting to take. I will get the option to add, I will list some blogs, but it won't save and show up. I was able to add the Google Hot Trends gadget at the bottom of the page, but really want this particular gadget. It slowed me down last week and kept me from proceeding with the other "THINGS" so I think this week I will just let it pass and move forward.

Since I've already had a blog created it wasn't hard to add another. I haven't consistently added to my previous blogs so I am hoping that this 23 Thing thing will help me develop a habit of posting to my blog as well as learning some of the newer features.

I am a high school librarian and I would like to explore more ways to use blogs in my work.
