Selecting My Blog Tool

While searching for different blogging tools, I was surprised how often Tumblr showed up in the list of most used blogs. It never occured to me that this was a blogging tool, but because it very popular with students I thought I would look into it. For a teen, I suppose this is a good tool, but mostly it appeared to be mostly a social networking site. I decided to check out Edublogs as it is so popular with educators, but the free version didn't offer very much. I'm a huge fan of video embedding and media embedding, but it was not offered with the free version. Ultimately, my decision to use Blogger was made for one reason...I'm a huge Google user. I'm logged in to Google account all day and use Google Docs in my classroom...it just made sense!
