I recognize that at a particular point in our blogging, we need to stop, reflect back, revise and select our presence. It mostly has to do with a proces of re-invention, often because our presence needs to be updated, or re-presented. In my current case, the upcoming shift from the old Me2U community to the new ELGG community requires me to pull off my posts, re-examine them, re-select and re-organize them. It is during this process that I will need to engage in intensive personal blogging, learning to redistribute my posts to either a private sphere for further reflection, or to other spheres. I am engaged in a process of re-organizing, re-categorizing. I have sensed that this process is a common one among more experienced bloggers, as our virtual presence frequently comes under conscious scrutiny when the content needs to be moved, and that a great deal of transformative (unlearning, new shifts in perspectives, updates) learning occurs. In my attempt to archive and retain my ideas, I review, revise and re-present them in a new form.The active process of ideas development is documented by Lilia Efimova. Her recent paper, located at http://blog.mathemagenic.com/download/weblogAsPersonalThinkingSpace.pdf identifies three stages of ideas development within (edu)blogs: Awareness and articulationSense-makingTurning into a product (Efimova, 2009).Some of her work is based on Kaye et al’s 2006 article, To Have and to Hold: Exploring the Personal Archive. http://alumni.media.mit.edu/~jofish/writing/tohaveandtohold.pdfThis is an area of further exploration, as the role of edublogs in personal legacy creation is an emerging need as learners move through and between learning institutions.
