Welcome to the Blogs page

Everything on the internet seems to be about blogs or blogs themselves. I have several which you will find over on the right side of the page. Blogs are one of great things that has happened to the internet and the world over the past few years. Everyone has a blog. They're easier to do than websites and a way for people to communicate with each other. You can use blogs with students, and because they are so much like text messaging in a way, students will pick them up quickly, especially if you give them a chance to play with them. More later on blogs. For the moment, here are some of my favorite blogs that can be used by teachers.

 Cafe Salemba, is a blog written by three Indonesians about economics and music. I've just started reading this blog, but one point in its favor is that they know the difference between polygamy, polygyny, and polyandry.

holder Chalkdust is a blog about teaching and technology. Good stuff here.

cvxzcv Digital Chalkie is a blog for educators who use technology in Australia. I've just come across it, but it looks cool and useful. My guess is that chalkie is Aussie slang for teacher.

anthropology Metroblogging Chicago isa blog about Chicago,Illinois, USA. For a born-in-Chicago Chicagoan, this is a breath of fresh air. I miss the old city, and it seems to have really changed over the past 29 years. For all of you expatriate Chicagoans, this is a site to bookmark.

anthropology Metroblogging Lahore is a blog about Lahore, Pakistan. This is one of those sites that I just stumbled across. I lived in Lahore for four years and loved the city so I look forward to the little posts about life in Lahore. If you're planning on visiting Pakistan, or are just a former resident like me, this is a blog that you'll want to check on regularly.
