Thing #4

Commenting creates a sense of community and interaction because it allows for an exchange of ideas. Through commenting on someone else's blog you can let someone know that you agree or disagree with their ideas in a thoughtful manner, if you are using proper commenting etiquette.  Commenting also lets a person know that their ideas are being heard and that they have a voice.  In the posts about commenting, one of the things that I thought was important was the idea that comments should be meaningful and if that you do not care, do not comment.  The blogs of my classmates that I have chosen to follow and comment on are Tammie Smith, Morgan Garton, Natasha Pentecost, Olivia Rhodes, and Derek Carroll.  I have chosen these at random so that I could learn about my classmates.     

The two outside blogs that I chose to follow are The Pioneer Woman and ZooBorns, and I have chosen to follow them by using the RSS Feed. 

On the outside blogs, I commented on ZooBorns on the post about the Pygmy Hippo http://www.zooborns.com/zooborns/2012/03/south-africa-welcomes-prince-harry-a-brand-new-pygmy-hippo.html#comment-6a010535647bf3970b0168ea6600ed970c
and on the Pioneer Woman, I commented on a recipe http://thepioneerwoman.com/cooking/2012/04/oatmeal-whoopie-pies/comment-page-2/#comments

On my classmates blogs, I just commented on some of their posts, making agreements with many of the things that they have posted.
