Or could it also just be bucking societal expectations or even picketing a large corporation like Walmart? Did Thoreau intend for civil disobedience to specifically be a way of providing a check on governmental power, or did he intend it to be a way of expressing dissatisfaction with any organization, group, or company that has power?neal callhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17285975416175230777noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4886115867061503135.post-71177796417915542632010-06-11T22:57:06.773-07:002010-06-11T22:57:06.773-07:00I like how you tied Diigo into your post because w...I like how you tied Diigo into your post because we have all been using it, but no one has really discussed it in their posts. I have heard so many of our classmates talking about how much they love it and how it has changed their way of researching. I personally haven't been as into it as everyone else, but I see the potential behind and completely understand where everyone is coming from. Diigo has created a place where you can store all your information in one convenient place instead of having information is 5 different areas that you are constantly having to switch between! <br /><br />All in all, a great post and you did an awesome job referring to the posts you have already written while still keeping us as readers in the loop!Stacie Joneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03948697272004038163noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4886115867061503135.post-36376311025367618972010-06-11T09:09:28.530-07:002010-06-11T09:09:28.530-07:00Thanks Becca!

Grea...Aurdey, really good "tie in" post! Great job! I think you nailed what we talked about in class with helping your readers understand where you're going and not just taking the plunge! So I have a few suggestion/comments!<br /><br />Great interlinking to your previous posts. Maybe it would be good to use sub-headings? As ADD of a reader this makes me sound, I find that if I see a sub-heading I'm more likely to read it than if I just see another paragraph! That could just be me though, so take that suggestion with a grain of salt!<br /><br />As you're talking about where you want to take this next, you could maybe use a "trilogy" type set up for your audience, sort of like what I did (yes I'm self-promoting one of my methods lol! but only because it's really helpful) as I found when I had to think about what I was going to say next, how it would build upon the previous post, and what to name it to show that relationship, I found my final 4 posts and start each post with a goal in mind!<br /><br />In response to your question, "Where is this headed?" maybe take a look at civil disobedience which wasn't virtual (hello Becca, Woman's suffrage that Stacie is writing on might be a good place to start!)and see where those went, and compare/contrast if ECD will have the same results. I don't think we constantly have to be comparing our subjects, we can contrast as well to show the shortcomings of the digital age compared with the real life thing. Just a thought! <br /><br />Really great post though! I think you did a great job!Beccahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15721211032797019129noreply@blogger.com
