I was fortunate to share my nephew's blog as he traveled the world last year on his 'gap year'. It was such an easy way for him to keep family and friends up to date with his adventures and so exciting for us to be a part of it. I did miss getting post cards though!
The potential for such a tool is clear. I am reminded of my first year teaching in the 80's when I had my class keep a journal and I would comment in it each week. This was a great way to get to know the students at a level that is even harder to reach these days. Adding an educational focus takes it all to another level.
