Edit post
What to do:
review all your learning log entries
My entries have attempted to match the requirements
and choose what you think are your strongest and weakest entries
There are many strong and weak entries, probably entirely based on my interest in updating the blog. I am updating the blog to reflect the work performed in the preparation of the summary!
write a short commentary (100 words for each entry) justifying your choice.
I think that I am not qualified to comment on the strength of my blog entries. I advertised my blog address via the discussion board, but one of the failings of my blog was that it was not popular.
Your analysis should not just refer to formal elements (such as writing and grammar), but to issues such as how well the entry reflected the task, applied conceptual or critical knowledge, or reflected a difficult experience in fulfilling the set tasks
The set tasks were performed. If I was to advertise my blog further, maybe other readers would be interested in the content. Most blogs seem to evolve into webpages purely via initial traffic to the blog and then acceptance of the content.
assign a mark to your log out of 10 (where an 8 is a HD, 7 a D etc) - imagine you are the tutor assessing your work - if you continued the log in this fashion for the rest of the semester, what sort of mark do you think you are likely to get?
I think my blog is worth 7/10. I understand the concept of the blog. I have updated required information to the blog. I have also been able to customise my blog. I have investigated other user's blogs to gain perspective. The blog could maybe closer reflect the syllabus rather than my random updates.

Web 2.0
The differences between the two are presentation and visual aesthetics versus the display of just raw text. The site appears to be well designed with option to search but defaults to different categorization of the links than the html site. http://www.diigo.com/about advertises reasons to use the site such as improved research productivity
The html version does not offer options to filter by tags or by annotation, more conventional search means such as Ctrl + F may be required to search the page text.
There are advantages for both formats depending on user preference. The html version does not contain advertising, which may be a plus for people with deep-seeded hatred for these irrelevant links getting in the way. I would prefer the site due to the appearance and search options. If I was unable to find what I was looking for, or found that I could not navigate around the site in a manner to my liking, I could always revert to the html version and perform basic searches or scroll through the text.

To reveal how I got to this within 1 minute, I googled, found Larry, and then found Bianca, who had the answer!

I think I am a long way behind in my studies.
I have been reeling all day after a late night submitting an assignment for another subject, and have come to the conclusion that I may be a long way behind in my studies at this point in time. My intention is to spend the remainder of the weekend being responsible and studying. We will have to see how that goes!
