Blogging with Siri?

This is a test to see how effective and efficient it would be for bloggers to use Siri this is text entry tool.
One of the first things I've realised is that I need to spend time learning how to tell Siri to enter punctuation.
So far I have entered each paragraph separately. This perhaps makes it easy to Siri to manage the processing without being overloaded.
Initially Siri translated her own name is sorry but in my last paragraph she got her name correct.
If I can sort out the punctuation this has got to be a quick and effective way to input text. So far her only mistakes have been Siri's name and the lack of punctuation. The speed and accuracy has been fabulous. best of all, this overcomes the issue of fat fingers entering text slowly on the iPhone keyboard.

Blogging from the iPhone

We visited Cameron Lochie at Kaipara Flats this week and Tracey at Pahoia School.
Children in their classes were blogging their learning experiences from at home as well as at school.
One idea behind this was its effectiveness as a record of Home Learning experiences.
Children for example, baked a cake as a Home Learning assignment. They recorded the ingredients, recipe and process and took photos along the way.
Posting these on their blogs from home was a great way to document (and verify) their learning.
