Honestly, trying to figure out how to customize a PLN for me was little difficult. I tried using a few sites that Dr. Strange suggested, but nothing really worked for me. That is, until I figured out that my computer was keeping track of what websites I visited and how often I was on those sites. I then figured out how to create a PLN that works for me. On Safari, you can choose twelve sites to have listed at all times. For me, this was the perfect PLN. I have the websites I use the most in one convenient location. Any other websites that I find, I simply Bookmark and place into the appropriate folders that I have already set up. On my PLN, I have the following sites as my main pages:
- Blogger
- USA Online
- Delicious
- Skype
- YouTube
- Gary's Social Media Count
- The New York Times
- South Alabama
My PLN helps me stay organized and help me get to these websites quickly. I'll admit that I didn't understand how beneficial a PLN could be at first, but now I really appreciate having it set up. I am very excited to keep working on and improving my PLN. I know that my PLN will be extremely beneficial to me as a student and future teacher!
