Becoming a Writer on the Read/Write Web

Here I am posting my first entry on my own blog and now we come to the part where I get stymied. I have been using the web for years! Even before the web was the web. I used it for everything - but all in a Web 1.0 way! I was/am the consummate consumer, never the creator.

Even the "cool" experiences I assigned to students using web 2.0 tools were really web 1.0 assignments. Find out, get information, tell us what you learned - all one way traffic.

I feel equipped to respond, comment, react to someone else's post, but not to create my own. Am I alone in this?
