Dear Sue,
I am a new user of edublog but I am already felt the problem of the site while i exporing its new features and functions. First problem is the time that it takes to load a page, for e.g, when i was trying to write a blog entry to inform my students of upcoming assignments and activities. I was extremely frustrated the fact that it took so long to load a page just to allow me to post an entry. Second is I seem to be unable to copy and paste the embeded code for youtube and widget into a post, or a page, or in the sidebar. i read your guideline on how to embed the html code into a normal post, but it didnt appear, and it kept popping up with the message that internet explore cannot load the page. I tried the whole morning and i still unable to insert a video clip from youtube into the post. Can you please enlighten me on this matter? Your comment is urgently needed. Thank you.

Hi Sue,
Well this competition has certainly been fun and exciting!!!
I really enjoy visiting all the blogs and having people comment on my blog it made me feel good and that my posts were important.
I like how every week each member of the competittion has to write a post. I liked visisting others blogs because they also had interesting things to write about. This competition has let us exspress oursel. Our opinion will be heard with every post or comment that we make. This competition is amazing and I’m glad I’m a part of it.

Hi Sue,
I started to read all this beautiful comments and I ended commenting on several of their author’s blogs!
It’s really an energizing and cheerful experience to go through this Competition!
So far, I’m slowly getting my students on the road, we take our time because we must participate as a in a “leisure activity” – it means that we are not given specific time at school to get along with it, except for 40 minutes on Monday during lunch break.
This is so, because, this year, Primary grades have computer lessons included in their syllabus for the 1st time, and they have them precisely during our lunch breaks!
Even though, I’m so happy to have brought my young students to this world of wonder – and yet so real – I just hope they will understand that the heart of blogging and web2.0 is all about friendship and building a new world.
Thank you for your helpful and caring support!

I think blogging is a lot of fun because it allows you to talk to others all over the world and find out more about their lifestyles. Also, about the competition, I like seeing everyone’s different views on the same subject.
Blogging is a new thing for me and when I get a new comment on my blog I get realy excited. Same with when I get a new dot on my cluster map. My parents think it’s a great thing that I have my own blog and that I am commenting on other people’s blogs.
Hi
I like blogging and I find it interesting because Its away of people all over the world to talk about stuff thats going on in the school or life. I really like to be able to tell people what I think about election or things in my city or in other place’s.
Blogging is good and thank you for your help with the compotition. it really helps alot for us.
Blogging is very fun and a good expierence for anyone. I love reading the adventures and stuff people write about and commenting is fun.
i think the best part of blogging is that you can express your opinion and not have to worry about what other people think.
Sup Sue?!?!
(I thought you would be tired of hearing “Hey Sue”)
This competetion is the best! I have learned things I would never have looked into with out you’re help. I learned about RSS feeds, how to use HTML to embed an object on a page, and even learned about how to manage links.
Thanks
Peace, Lucas

Hi Sue,
The blogging competition has taught me a lot of things. It has improved my comprehension and writing skills. This competition is very interesting to me because I will be able to communicate to different people in the world by sending them comments. I really enjoyed making my avatar and writing on my about me page. That said I thank you for starting this blogging competition.
Thanks
This blogging competition has meant a lot to me because I get to communicate with people in other states and countries. The blogging competition has improved my reading and typing skills. My favorite part about making blogs are the clustr maps. I think it’s so cool that you can see who has visited you around the world. I’ve never experienced making blogs before and I have found that it is fun and also educational.

Hi Sue,
I like the blog compition because you do different actitivities every week. I am glad that we have to do all those great activities. It taught me how to under stand what a blog is about and it improved my writing skills. I also got to see other students blogs from around the world. I think the blogging competion will be a big success this year.
Aloha Sue Waters!
I have learned so much from your blog as well as Ms. Wyatt’s. The best part of blogging is without a doubt is commenting on other [people’s] blogs and posts. As Ms. Wyatt has said, commenting does indeed ‘Keep up the conversation’. Before I began my blog, I knew squat on blogging or what the purpose of what a blog was. Now, I check my blog every day and continue to make new posts and try to update it when I can. The competition has gotten very exciting. I still can not believe it’s almost over and will be melancholy. Even when the competition is over I will continue to keep blogging!

Hi Sue,
This blogging competition has taught me many things. I really enjoyed creating avatars and posting it on my blog. My writing skills have also improved during this competition.
I really enjoyed communicating with other students around the world. It was interesting how schools are so much different in other countries and states. It was also exciting to pick my theme and add a cluster map. It’s cool to know who looked on my blog. In all, this blogging competition has been educational and interesting.

Hi Sue,
First, the blogging competion is really helpful with our skills with computers. I have never been someone who could type fast or know what to do with my time on a computer besides checking e-mail. This competion has increased my skills with typing and searching. My computer class has been accomplishing every weekly challenge swiftly. My favorite part of it all is being able to talk to other people on the other side of the world. Also, creating a blog itself was cool because we have our own space to write our opinions in.
Thank-you Miss Waters!!!!
Hi Sue! Thank you for creating this blog competition. It has taught me so much about my computer skills. Such as my typing, and writing skills. These blogs also help me communicate with people all over the world! I find that very interesting. Ive also been keeping up with my blog frequently thanks to your competition. Overall your idea has helped me learn in so many ways, thank you.
This blogging compition has meant a lot to me in the way that it has showed me what its like in other parts of the world. It also taught me how to do new things on the computer that I had no clue that we were able to do before, like make a avartar and having your own blog. During the blogging compition I have explored through different countries just over the internet. I feel like I have been to the different countries just looking at the other peoples blogs. This experiance is vary unique to me and I enjoy it alot.
Hi Sue,
Thank you for responding to my comment and checking out my page. I enjoy learning most from filipacad6b because she is the only person I have really been communicating with that is not in the U.S. She is really nice and I am learning so many things about Portugual.
The blogging competition is amazing. I learned how to make links to websites that I like. I have been able to see other people’s blogs from around the world. Because of the blogging competition I have learned some stuff about blogs that I would have never learned if it weren’t for this blogging competition.
Hey Miss W.
This blog competion has meant alot to me and helped me be a better writer and learn about online safety. I now know that I should not give out any personal information therefore protecting me. That said I say thankyou for this wonderful Blog Competion you have started.
Yours truly,
