Thing 2 - Entering the Library Blogosphere

After yesterday's reading, I have chosen a blog on which to leave comments. 
I am in general agreement with the blogger's point of view and feel I can 'connect', if this is the right word. 

I spend about 15 minutes carefully wording my comment and am rather disappointed when it fails to post. A message appears saying "waiting for comment to be approved". I must admit that I'm clueless about this. I wait, then log off and check the blog again later. Needless to say, the comment I posted is not there.

Oh well...if in doubt refer to a dummies guide. Here is the useful blog which cured my ignorance...

This is what I did.: How to comment on a blog - a beginners guide

  1. Some people choose to moderate all the comments left on their site - it's usually to stop spammers being able to leave spam all over their blog. You'll often find that the first time you leave a comment the author may want to moderate it first (and obviously how long that takes depends on their availability), but then once you have been approved you will be able to comment on their blog again without having to go through that process. That's the way I choose to do things on my main blog.

    Welcome to blogging, I look forward to reading your other posts (I'm on the CPD23 organising team and wrote thing 3 so was particularly interested in your views on branding).
