A Recent Post

The other day I published a post entitled, "Technorati's Highest Ranked Education Blogs." I'm not sure how my data from a search on Technorati turned out so wrong. Either the Technorati search provided wrong information or I conducted the search incorrectly. I think it was probably my bad. I likely skipped over some blogs accidentally while trying to avoid irrelevant blogs. I typed the word "education" in the bottom textbox, on the advanced search page, which asks for the topic of the blog that one is looking for. I just ran the same search again and Will Richardson's blog comes up as the top listing on the second page. The beauty of blogging is that others help you catch mistakes quickly.

I should add that I'm honored that both Will Richardson and Ewin McIntosh caught my mistakes. These are two bloggers from whom I have a great deal of respect. It means that each of these individuals are reading my blog. Thanks gentlemen for your comments and I'm sorry about missing your blog.

Incidentally, my dissertation director told me not to compare blogs to research literature in my dissertation. I think he was right when he said that it was too far removed from the central point of my dissertation which is considering whether or not an intervention can help teachers learn to think about using technology in the classroom through a prism of Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge.
