Blogging is very much new territory for me. Although I read numerous library related blogs to keep on top of current issues, I have had no inclination to write my own. I've never really been a diary keeper either so I suppose it all links back to that.
Despite this, I've managed to set up my 23 things blog and start posting! And guess what...it wasn't as horrific as I thought it would be! Blogger seems quite easy to use and with a user-friendly interface, especially for novices like myself. It's good that it's linked to my Google ID as that one less username and password to remember.
Blogs are an excellent medium of communication and networking. They provide an instantaneous way of discovering people's opinions and experiences of current and relevant issues as well as being able to easily share your own thoughts. I also find them extremely useful for resources discovery, the number of times I've stumbled across an article or website on someone's blog is countless.
As suggested, I've been having a look at the blogs of other 23 things participants. There is such a variety of skill levels and different library environments. It's going to be interesting following the experience of others and picking up tips!
