 From this week's video, I find PLNs a little overwhelming. I do not know if it is because of my age, but thinking about how individual PLNs are formed feels like a lot. After a lot of thinking, I realize I am constantly building an individual PLN. I do feel my "accidental" PLN is already in place. I have worked in the field of project management for over 15 years, with experience in construction for nearly 30 years. I have many colleagues, social bookmarks, content development already under my belt. I realize I video conference nearly daily in regards to my professional career. What might seem a daily tasks, are just notches in my PLN development.
First off the bat, I noticed the best blogs are easier to read. I already applied a new template to my blog to make it easier on the eyes. The next thing I noticed, is short stories or paragraphs help organize information. For example, the EdTech Blog is organized so someone could pick a topic and see the according information easily. I would also include providing value would be an important part of a blog post. Hopefully I can use some of these as examples of how to incorporate a good blog post.
 Welcome to my first blog post! I am very new to this process, and I feel like I am going to learn a lot using a new technology. I feel like blog posts are old for some people, but I have never used one. I am hoping to use this technology to introduce other students to new types of technology, especially in the field of project management. Best of luck to everyone this semester.
