Well personally never had a use for blogs. Just from searching some websites the blogging area tend not to be a child friendly place, in some cases adult friendly. Now as far as the educational factor goes I would only use a blog if it related to the subject and it would have to be in some kind of private form. Even then it would not be a totally safe environment for students. As for usefulness for education I would have to do more research on that. I am still not totally convinced that blogging is good source of education. Blogging my be a good tool for a computer class but right now I feel that there are better ways to use the computer for educational purposes.
If I had to use a blog in my curriculum, I would use it as a homework help line, if they had questions they wanted to ask me but were to afraid to say so in class. To me this would be the best way for me utilize blogging.
