TASK NINE
Find Your 'Blog Buddies'
You should know a lot about each other's blogs by now - through doing the comments task and through checking out each other's links in Task 7. Now you need to find the two blogs that share most in common with your own in terms of the texts/topics/issues/debates being studied.
The first needs to be from your class; the second needs to be from another class, so you'll each have two 'Blog Buddies' by the end of this process.
When you've decided which ones are suitable you need to contact the other bloggers by leaving a comment on their most recent post explaining why you think you're similar. Think of it like a coursework dating game where your job is to pull the right blogger. Don't be shy or you'll get left out! Make the first move!
If you agree with each other then you need to put together a detailed joint proposal explaining why you should be 'Blog Buddies'. This must be posted up on both your blogs (before next Monday 5-11) and should include the following...

If you agree with each other then you need to put together a detailed joint proposal explaining why you should be 'Blog Buddies'. This must be posted up on both your blogs (before next Monday 5-11) and should include the following...
- A short summary of each study
- Areas of overlap between each study (texts, topics, issues, debates)
- What you've each learned from looking at each other's study that might be useful
And remember, if you're not quick about it your ideal Blog Buddy will be snatched from you by someone else and you'll be left with one that may not be as good!
