What's the difference between a forum post and a blog post? I'm not sure if there is much of a difference, but I do see the forum as a place to have discussions on big ideas, share resources, and invite others to collaborative projects. The blog feature seems to be more of an individual, personal place to post anything. Post where you wish, but make sure you take advantage of tagging and categorizing your posts!
