this blog is, at least in part, a journal
Several times you've mentioned that should aim to "tell a compelling story" , to simply explain what it's all about and to avoid the "what I did on vacation" presentation. I took this message to heart, and am very interested in learning design communication.
I was also thinking it would be good to keep a journal of my experience: to document my progress, reflect on it, and get feedback.
So, I plan to use this blog as a journal, and possibly also to more formally communicate my findings and ideas, as I might to a client or coworker.

great james. I agree wholeheartedly. it will be a great record of your progress and a valuable tool to help you capture and document key insights and milestones along the way.
Yay! What a great idea. I hope you don't forget about this as you move forward and get into the stickier parts of the process. I find it helps me develop new ideas when I write them out off the top of my head. As Charles Owen said, "writing is the best brainstorming tool". Good luck!
Thanks April! I agree with you and Prof. Owen, and have been making a conscious effort to write my thoughts down more often, using writing as a tool for "thinking with" and a tool for "reflecting on". With blogging, I have the opportunity to easily share some of my thoughts, too.
