Is Anyone Out There?

So this BLOG is all about a Social Media class I'm taking through the school district. The intent is to explore the various forms of media and to examine how they might apply to the classroom or my professional development. Another effect of the class is for the students in the class to develop a personal social network. I understand the concept, can agree with the concept and can see value in the concept. Unfortunately, conceptualization and application are two different tiers on Bloom's Taxonomy.
It was my assumption that each of us would fulfill our requirements independently and on occassion, engage one another for details. So it has been. The truth is, I have a limited amount of time to accomplish the many roles I fulfill. I can't post a question or need and then sit about waiting for another person who might or might not be on the same module to come across my question and then hope that student can provide me answers. I could wait for a week or more for a response. I can see how this might work in a structured environment such as the work place. Not so much in a class format as this.
As far as I can tell, this BLOG site has been visited by you Val and only you. I hope I've not bored you to tears. Oddly enough, I have enjoyed writing to myself. (I often ignore the notion that you are reading it!) Long has it been a valuable exercise for people to journal. I perceive BLOG more as a 21st century journal than a social media.
