The idea of being woven also implies that our connections have meaning and purpose and aren't just random. Good luck starting your blogging journey this summer--if you have time once you're up and running drop me a line; I'd really like to read what you post!

As a yet-to-begin blogger, I find the cross-connections of blog reading so fascinating and rich. It's why I have to limit my time spent digging through my aggregator. When I do start to blog this summer, my blog fodder will probably come from the thinking of others, questioned and examined from my point of view. Another phrase your Sketchcast makes me think of is "start somewhere, follow it everywhere". Isn't that what deep learning is about?

Once I realized there was a text option, that made it flow a little better (much easier to type my title then scrawl it out in freehand/freemouse!) My condolences on Technorati--why does it still mock you?! @Sue, thanks for checking out my Sketchcast.

I'm still working through my review for the Challenge up to Day 24 but meanwhile Technorati has totally spat the dummy with me and am unable to get it to ping my blog :( so my posts on the Comment Challenge aren't displaying in the RSS feed. But when I do complete my task for Day 26 I will definitely be talking about Kevin and your sketchcasts.
