Okay, I’m not even going to think about the last time I wrote in my blog. Argh…darn it, I’m thinking! But before I make the resolution to, I don’t know, blog a little more frequently, how about coming with me down a spirally path of reflection? Sound good? (Yes, I got Inglourious Basterds for Christmas!).
Gwen Bell inspired me this morning with her excellent blog post The Best of 2009 Blog Challenge. So, since I’m coming into this challenge very late, I think I will change it up a bit, pick and choose some topics and see where it goes.
For prompt on tea: My favorite tea by far is a holiday blend by the Republic of Tea called Comfort and Joy.
For the prompt on blogs: My favorite blog of 2009 on the topic of Social Media is kind of an odd-ball one, because there are bigger names out there for sure! But this one resonated with me and I read it more consistently than any other. It is Outspoken Media. Great information, the tone works for me, and it has a good balance of resources and personality.
There are a ton of runners up on my list mostly in the realm of social media in higher education and I’ll be talking about them soon. For now though, as I start the process of reflecting on 2009, I’m feeling pretty darned grateful to all the people who have helped me along the way. So, for the word prompt: The word for the year I would choose is “change”. Almost all of it has been really, really good. Maybe a second word for the year might be “grateful”.
So what is your “best of” for 2009?
