Peer blog review "Hakuna Matata" by Eric Collyer

I recently reviewed another student's blog within my Digital Civilization class and wanted to highlight his posted blog entries.

The student's name is Eric Collyer and his wordpress site is hakuna matata from Kenya to Provo.


Eric has done an excellent job at tying together digital concepts with human behavior as well as tying together on occasion those concepts with the historical elements of our class.  

Most of his posts are short and to the point, which is nice, and he shows he has a lot of knowledge with the technological aspects of the class via the tools he illustrates and discusses.

Eric has personalized his blog by writing about personal experiences such as the Asking for a Date entry and adding a relevant comic strip which came to his mind after a class discussions.  Regarding the Consume, Create, and Connect aspects of the class, it's rather difficult to judge and review some of these, but overall Eric has shown he has consumed the weekly topics appropriately and has adequately explained various ways in which he has connected with others on our class subjects via Skype & Google Voice at a minimum.  The Create genre could use a little improvement as does my own blog, but overall I think he has done an excellent job with his reporting for the month of October and beginning of November.
