The 2010 Blogging Challenge!!!!

Friends, Huddle Up.  It's time to learn more about the 2010 blogging challenge.  When KC, Judith, Jdoc and I were at NCTE, we talked about the challenge, but ideas weren't flowing in the Magical Kingdom. While we got down to the wire, waiting to board our planes, we still had very few reasonable ideas.  We thought about a "This I Believe" kind of challenge.  Then I brought up a creative "What If?" theme where we could just write about weird imaginary things every day.  Then we finally came up with the perfect plan.

We want to come together as a blogging community to explore, consume and create media.  This is pretty cool, I'm sure you agree.  We can consume new media stuff and then just blog the heck out of it. We can also experiment with some new media whenever we feel like it.   Jenkins says that people who come together around new media become a participatory culture.  I'm jazzed about this, peeps.  Let's do this thing.
