Thing 11

I don't mind commenting on other's blogs and I do enjoy getting comments. However, I think I mentioned this before, there are people out there who are a bit on the weird side and look for people to comment on. They don't like to follow the "rules" and some can simply be dangerous. In an online community, comments are a part of the fun. It's fun to see what someone thinks about what you have posted. Without comments in the online community, what would be the point of posting? If no one says anything to us about what we post, it would be very boring and it would no longer be a community. It would just be a website.

I know my students would enjoy using comments in the classroom setting. There would be a strong emphasis on the rules and etiquette of being online and in that community. They would need to be careful and parents must consent, especially at the elementary level.
