Today we will develop some guideline for leaving comments.  Your comments should provide thoughtful ideas that add to the Post in a constructive way.  What are some ways we can always make sure that we are able to leave good comments on our blogs?

Portable 35 Commenting Guidelines 2010-2011

• Add comments to show that you read the post and add details that shares your knowledge of the topic.
• Ask questions.  Open-ended questions are best.  They require the blogger to respond.  This makes it more like a conversation.
• Use appropriate words/media.
• Make sure that you use good punctuation, spelling and grammar.
• Try and connect with the blog.
• Stay away from slang or texting language.  Some people may not understand it.
• Be polite.
• It’s okay to give advice/suggestions.
