from: http://theinnovativeeducator.blogspot.com/

1-Join a professional social network.

2-Pick 5 Blogs you find interesting and start reading them.

3-Set up a Netvibes account using your professional email and subscribe to the blogs you selected. Caution: Limit your reader to five to start. Keeping up with more blogs will be difficult.

4-Become a part of the conversation and start commenting on the blogs you read.

5-Join the microblogging phenomena by reading Tweets at Twitter. Start by selecting 5 well-known Edubloggers to follow and watch all the great stuff they have to share. You'll learn a lot in minutes that fit into 140 character sound bytes. Recommendations to start: willrich45 / Will Richardson,  coolcatteacher / Vicki Davis, stevehargadon / Steve Hargadon,  acarvin / Andy Carvin, penelopetrunk / Penelope Trunk.  Just get ready because once people start following you, you may feel compelled to start engaging in exciting activities worth posting…in 140 characters or less.
