Using blogs in education

I was very pleased with myself for getting a feed going from my del.icio.us page to my ASLAonline Ning page (adding aslaning as a tag) after our discussions in the digital literacy strand of the conference. I mentioned one link in particular and then found I had to delete that as there seemed to be some problem with the page, or my link, or whatever. So here is a summary of the page not in my feed anymore:

Hi Marita,
Unfortunately I've had to pass on the conference - too much going on elsewhere. I was interested to read your article in the ASLA newsletter about the blog you are using at school. Thanks to your previous suggestion I've been playing with Librarything and I keep meaning to phone you at school to learn how you are using it in conjunction with your opac. Perhaps I'll do so this week once the music festival etc has concluded.
I hope you found the online conference stimulating.
Cheers
Jenny

Hi Marita,
I'm curious about how you run the storyLines blog - I've just started working at a boys' school and am thinking about a blog for the middle school boys, and am in the information-exploration/gathering stage!
