So it turns out edublogs now allows “contentlink” ads to appear within my free educational blog. I have investigated the possibility of ridding my blog of these annoying ads. Now I read that in order to have an “ad-free” blog, I must pay an annual subscription. It is difficult for a reader to distinguish my intentional links from these random advertisements. I suppose this is another example of constantly changing technology. As an educator, one can spend many hours learning a new technology tool which ends up becoming useless, unnecessary, or suddenly obsolete. There is still one benefit, however, because each new learning experience provides skills that make the next one just a bit easier.
The secret to digital happiness is getting comfortable with change.
