Weaving a basket of knowledge

A kete is a Maori basket and with this Learning 2.0 online program I hope to begin gathering a new set of skills for myself and weaving them into a basket of knowledge that I can share with others.

Up until recently I have been sceptical of blogs and Web 2.0 but I am beginning to see potential uses now so I'm keen to learn more. My biggest concern, I guess, is that it's all very well to spend time and energy putting these blogs together but I notice that many have hardly any comments posted eg. the library blogs used as examples in this program.

How do our communities know about our blogs? Do they know how to use blogs? what blogs are? Will they bother to use our blogs?
