I must say, at first I was really excited about blogging. It was new to me and I thought that I would have a lot to blog about. Well... as it turns out I didn't. I suppose I could come up with excuses; there wasn't enough time, I spent too much time on the research and not enough on the publication/blogging, or I just didn't do it. The truth is, I like to read others' blogs more than I like to blog.
The concept of blogging is great. As a reader they are resourceful and easy to access. But as a blogger they take a certain degree of dedication and focus that I have lacked in the past. At first I wanted to blog for my science students. As it turns out they don't have access to the web at home and many of them don't have personal computers. Blogging became a mute subject. Then I thought I would blog about technology. I am interested in it and blogging would almost force me to research and stay in the loop about the latest greatest. I have stayed in touch, but I never made the transition into actually blogging about it. Now, I am hoping that I will have more focus in future blogs.
My intention is to blog about my experience in a graduate course in "Web 2.0 in education." I just began the course and it is moving along fast.

Morgan, I have the same issues as you point out.. I setup a blog last year, but only posted about 3 times. Hopefully this will help me to do it more often as well.
