     From Bill Ferriter: If you're not sure where to begin, explore the blogs that I've organized in my professional Pageflake at www.pageflakes.com/wferriter/16618841. I read these blogs all the time. Some leave me challenged. Some leave me angry. Some leave me jazzed. All leave me energized and ready to learn more. 

B. Use RSS to subscribe to the blogs you follow.

C. Sharing with colleagues
     1. Informally
     2. Inservice presentation or Professional meeting time next year?
     3. Appeal to their personal interests
