For a blog to be most successful, it should be be consistent. you develop a: brand, a following. People read your blog because they like your style, your insights, your thinking. Two people CAN participate on a blog, but it of course should be clear that it is two people. If you have a picture, then there should be a picture of both, with both names in about the same size font. Of course you can have guest blogs at times that YOU selected, and maybe write an intro to. But, two bloggers that post to the same blog should cooperate and have about the same style, and work together at times. There is a lot more difference between you and Marc Wagner than the fact that you are K-12 and he is in a University. There are people at a University that would be very compatible and complimentary to your style.

So, my recommendation is that you split the blog into two. Yours could be "Open source and new ideas for K-12". Marc Wagner could be "Why Windows is the only desktop OS for a research University" (Sorry Marc feel free to pick your own name).

But, Your blog was developing a brand, a following, then that was a little trashed with some in-your-face, rather unexpected, "people only want Windows it is hopeless to resist" blogs by Marc.

And, what is the problem with splitting the two? Is there a lack of space? Can you look for somebody in a University that is compatible with your style?; Posted by: DonnieBoy Posted on: 11/21/07 You are currently: a Guest | Members login | Terms of Use
