There are so many great examples of blog comments that should be a full fledged post. Matthew Needleman recently posted “Five Reasons Why We Aren’t Integrating Technology in School” at http://www.needleworkspictures.com/ocr/blog/?p=402 I replied, but then also used his comments to compare tech use to textbook use on my blog. It’s this cross-communication that makes blogging such a rich tool for learning.

Honestly, there are times where the comments left on a blog post are perhaps more significant than the blog post itself.

And you know what, Steve—I’d go as far as to argue that if you’re doing blogging “right,” this will grow to be the case every time!

The blog entries that I like the best are those where my readers shape understanding with each other because they are evidence that learning is taking place—-and that learning always crafts my own thinking too.

Cassie Erkens—a great Solution Tree presenter—always says, “The one who’s doing the talking is the one who is doing the learning.”

Translating that to the blog world, if writers really see blogging as a community of learners, they have a responsibility to promote/encourage/ moderate/support/ celebrate commenting on their blog.

Otherwise, the only person doing any learning is the writer of the original post.

That changes the dynamic between writers and readers, doesn’t it? If writers want followers, but followers don’t get the sense that writers value their input enough to engage in conversation or to find value in their comments, they’ll stop coming back.

Humans want to interact—-and on a blog, that means engaging your commenters in the conversation and giving them some ownership over the direction of the conversation.

Interesting stuff, indeed.
