Some good posts are showing up in the LLD 100WB student blogs [Betina, Heather, Ronny]. Remember that there are some suggestions about subjects and types of blog entries in the WebCT assignment called "Blog revision 1."
One possible type of entry is to discuss a topic or event that you read about. If the source is available on-line, then include a link to it. For blogs hosted on blogger.com, just select a word in the text entry box, click the link button (it looks like a globe with a chain in front of it), then enter the URL in the box that pops up [blogger.com Help].
If it is an off-line source, then give enough information so that an interested reader could find it. For example, '"Rich Man, Poor Man" (The Economist, Jan. 20, 2007, pp. 15-16) notes that there is a growing backlash against globalization.' Later on you'll learn how to create citations that meet formal rules, but the essence is to enable your readers to find the source and verify what you write.
