March 20 Posting Diigo vs Delicious

After converting all of your bookmarks from Delicious into Diigo I want you to do a compare and contrast of both.
Explain the differences, both good and bad
Explain how using Diigo differs from Delicious (how to bookmark and add tags)

I expect to see several well constructed paragraphs. Use the learning tutorial on Diigo if you need to. Also use the help.

Blogging Rules

Hello and welcome to our class blog.


Blogging is one of the topics we will discuss in class and what better way to learn than to use a blog. We will use this blog throughout the term in a couple different ways.


It may be to respond to something we do in class. It may be to post work, or comment on other's work. A blog has many different uses. We also will have each of you create a blog so that you can see how easy it is.


Before we begin blogging there are a few ground rules!
1. All posts, must use appropriate school language and be completed in paragraph form. When you post, you should be using complete sentences with proper grammar and spelling. NO: U, R, UR, i, CUZ, etc.


2. When posting a comment, you may agree or disagree with another students comment. However, you must state why you feel that way and must do it in a manner that is polite and non-judgmental. The comments need to be non-personal and refrain from sarcasm and put-downs.


3. You must comment on every post, it is an assignment (unless otherwise stated).


4. You must address the topics and questions posted on the blog. You cannot simply write, “I agree.”
