Thanks for the weekend, as usual my time spent with you
was very worthwhile and enjoyable.
Your summary of the weekend is very accurate and
useful.
For the record there are four stages of
learning.
Stage 1.UNCONSCIOUS INCOMPETENCE.
We dont know what we dont know. Using the analogy of learning to
drive, this can be likened to a small child sitting behind the wheel of daddys
car while its parked in the driveway. Daddy, Im
driving!
Stage 2.CONSCIOUS
INCOMPETENCE.
We are acutely aware of what we dont know. To return to the driving
analogy, we take our very first driving lesson and within SECONDS of attempting
to control the car, we understand fully the lack of our ability. Instead of
being the star pupil who will send the car in a straight line at precisely 30
mph on the first attempt, we end up stalling at a busy road junction on the
wrong side of the road with other drivers hooting their horns just like
everyone else on their first lesson.
Stage 3.CONSCIOUS
COMPETENCE.
Having passed our driving test, we throw away the L plates and drive
off down the road to visit a friend and share our success.
Do you recall how tiring
even the shortest of journeys was? That is because we had to consciously think
about every action we took. Notice how new drivers always move at precisely 30
mph, put their handbrakes on at every traffic light and stop at every roundabout
or junction even when you can see for miles that there is nothing
coming!
Stage 4.UNCONSCIOUS COMPETENCE.
You have been driving for
years and, if youre a man you probably consider you have above average driving
skills and would make a pretty good rally driver.
On the other
hand...
How many times have you
expected the car in front to turn left because they had their left indicator
going then they turned right and you had to brake
quickly?
How many times have you
absent-mindedly found yourself half way to work on a Sunday morning when you
were actually meaning to go to the shops?
Stage 4 is comfortable,
efficient and natural. It is the area of instinctive reaction, I know what this
is Ive done this a thousand times before It
also carries some risk. So we return to Stage 1.
This class was based on the 8 sotai dosa and the relationship with the tandoku undo (tegatana dosa). Proper posture was an important item during the class. The focus on the proper posture was already mentioned during the previous yudansha class, and this is remembered by some of the participants. Those who already have some experience with the 8 sotai dosa can do the step to kakari geiko in the proper way. Some participants are still in the stage of learning the sequence. One participant asked the question about how to acquire skill.
First we have to explain : what is skill? Skill is an ability to choose and perform the right techniques or movements at the right time, successfully, regularly and with a minimum of effort. Skill has 3 components : Cognitive : involves thought processes - know and understand what you are doing Perceptual : involves interpretation of information Motor : involves movement - Psychomotor skill (doing) excellence requires the execution of precise, fluent and effective movement patterns which requires the combination or perceptual and motor skills In addition we have to take in considiration : Affective behaviour (feeling) : success depends on mental attitude and developing psychological skills to cope with stress
How to teach skill Verbal instructions Demonstration Video Diagrams Photo sequences
There are three stages to learning a new skill: Cognitive phase - Identification and development of the component parts of the skill - involves formation of a mental picture of the skill Associative phase - Linking the component parts into a smooth action - involves practicing the skill and using feedback to perfect the skill Autonomous phase - Developing the learned skill so that it becomes automatic - involves little or no conscious thought or attention whilst performing the skill The leaning of physical skills requires the relevant movements to be assembled, component by component, using feedback to shape and polish them into a smooth action. Rehearsal of the skill must be done regularly and correctly.
An example : the 8 sotai dosa
The results of the 8 skills of sotai dosa are : hineri gaeshi
The 8 skills are the result of the 5 basic handblade movements and the 3 foot movements Understanding and correct execution of the solo exercises of unsoku and tandoku undo is an important factor in acquiring skill. What are the faults in skill development?
Incorrect understanding of the movement Poor physical abilities Poor co-ordination of movement Incorrect application of power Lack of concentration
Conclusion of this class : Some participants are in the stage of understanding and are developping the sotai dosa skills to use in kakari geiko. Although bad habits comes to the surface when the kakari geiko turns into hikitate geiko or randori geiko.
19-20-21 November (with Yoshiomi Inoue) 18-19 December (with Tim Wolput) 21-23 January
This class was based upon the 8-sotai dosa. These 8 basic movements were practised and related to techniques from the basic-17 and Koryu-no-kata. Besides the simple technical aspect, a lot of attention was on the use and development of a soft power, generated by a relax movement of the body with a good posture.
Major problems are :
No understanding of the proper posture and movement. In most cases the bodyweight is too high, the body becomes unstable and this is compensated by making the body tensed. Movement is relying on too much muscular power. By doing this, the movements are becoming slow, which again is compensated by muscular power to apply a technique. Solution : introducing a proper breathing technique, visualization techniques.
No understanding of the role of tori and uke. In many cases the roles of tori and uke are expierenced as attacker and defender, the defender likes to win by a throw or joint technique. The attacker likes to win by using muscular power or by intercepting (often too soon) the technique or movement of tori. This produces a contra-productive result on the evolution of the aikidoka. The idea of cooperative training is not understood in some cases and cooperative training is associated with jumping before the actual movement becomes effective, or with passive movements. Passive movements are movements without the intention to do an action. Interception of the technique too soon by uke is frequently done by studying an isolated movement or technique. An example is a 17-hon kata technique were uke knows exactly what is happening. He is frequently thinking this is randori, and he uses the corset of limiting the movement of tori to win his randori. The feedback of this situation is a negative one. Solution : again here we have to work on posture and also on the ability to feel what is going on during the movement. You only can give feedback when you feel what is going on, the more understanding you have, the more feedback you can give.
Referee and randori Some referee training and randori at the end of the seminar. This will be repeated next seminar.
15-16-17 October 19-20-21 November (with Yoshiomi Inoue) 18-19 December (with Tim Wolput)
Teruo Fujiwara "The time when I studied under Tomiki-shihan in 1956-1958 is called 'the age of Judo Exercise'. The main ways of moving the body and hands were picked from Aiki skills, then simplified and abstracted and organized as the exercise forms. These forms are 'Judo Exercise'. The plan of making 'Judo Exercise' is that by doing them repeatedly, we can learn Aiki as if we learned hundreds of thousands of skills which can benefit our bodies in a positive fashion. 'Judo Exercise' is the valuable legacy of Tomiki-sensei.
Tomiki-sensei wrote in the pamphlet Judo Exercise (published as the text of regular subject physical education in April 1957) that he made 'Judo Exercise' as the way to practice Aiki, which couldn't be a sport, and that when practicing aikido, we must study for correctness and beauty, rather than strength. That is why our time is called 'the age of Judo Exercise'.
I could study the beauty of Aiki following Tomiki-sensei without hesitating but there were many students interested in the strength of Aiki. It may be natural for young men who would like to study martial arts. Tomiki-sensei said that they must satisfy their desire for strength by practicing the other skills in 'Judo Exercise' but they didn't always follow his suggestion.
In 1958, Aikido Club which was previously not an official club (in early times, Aikido Club was a part of Judo Club. Tomiki-sensei was also the shihan of Judo Club) was granted official status in the Department of Sport and Physical education at Waseda University. As a condition of becoming an official club, Aikido Club was required to practice as a competitive sport. There is no doubt Tomiki-sensei was considering how to develop aikido into a competitive sport as the ultimate goal, yet, he did not expect the situation to become an urgent matter. It was this requirement that forced Tomiki aikido to step into 'the age of sport: Randori'.
Today Sport Aikido is moving toward completion step by step. However, the skill level of Sport Aikido is not the same as our 'age of Judo Exercise'. While we must accept that wrong forms will happen in sport, Randori, 'Judo Exercise' is useful as the model for checking and correcting them. I think that such a correction will bring sport Randori higher, with beauty and grace. For the beginner, 'Judo Exercise' is the proper guidance of skills. I think it is necessary that beginners learn to perform the correct postures and beautiful movements by training in 'Judo Exercise. This method will help them avoid incorrect forms in future Randori practice."
There will be a seminar with Inoue sensei 19th November - 22nd November 2010 in the Shobukai dojo Antwerp/Belgium
He also gave already some comment on the book : Tegatana
The Judo Taiso introduced by Tomiki-sensei is useful for
defense from various attack being used by other martial arts including Judo
techniques. I am sure that the book will be subscribed by not only Tomiki
Aikido-ka but also other budo-ka.
When we have a seminar we are learning many interesting things. The problem is to incorporate them into training. The use of tegatana is explained with the help of tandoku undo tegatana dosa or 7-hon-no-kuzushi. How to transfer knowledge into skill is an important item in our training. We are using an adaptation of the tabata-protocol (kind of intervaltraining). Keep the movements very simple and usefull for your randori or goshin-training. Please find here some examples of standard kuzushi movements. If you reach the level you can perform standard-randori training, at that moment you can start to improve your own strategies or techniques.
In kakari geiko we can use the training of different ways of kuzushi. During a trainingweekend for children we explored the 8 sotai renshu. The traininggoal was to use them in kakari geiko.
Watching a judo taiso movie by Teruo Fujiwara is not a interesting activity when you only look for flashy demonstrations. You need a different way of watching a movie. ......and then you realize there is a demonstration on the screen made by a genius. This training system, made by Kenji Tomiki is a systematical approach for the unlimited numbers of aiki techniques.

Tomiki Aikido : a balance between kata and randori
Tomiki Aikido : a balance between kata and randori
Introduction
Before WorldWar 2, aikido was a rather chaotic martial art. Practitioners had to remember the many techniques which Morihei Ueshiba performed in the dojo.
After the war many prominent followers of Morihei Ueshiba setup their system and tried to systemize the many techniques.
It was Kenji Tomiki, who studied judo under supervision of Jigoro Kano and aikido with Morihei Ueshiba, who created a unique system of aikido based on the
scientific theories of Jigoro Kano and the intuitive teachings of Morihei Ueshiba.
From judo taiso to randori
Around 1950-1952, Kenji Tomiki developped a trainingsystem for the many aiki-jutsu atemiwaza and kansetsuwaza , it was called judo taiso or judo gymnastics.
This trainingsystem was was created according the judo principles.
(Judo Taiso 1954 by Kenji Tomiki)
This Judo Taiso system includes
· 11 solo exercises (Tandoku Undo)
· 8 partner exercises (Sotai Undo)
The Tandoku Undo are exercises to develop good posture and balance. The judo principle shizentai-no--ri is clearly expressed in these excercises. In these
exercises the use of the handblade is a reflection of the many aiki-jutsu atemiwaza and kansetsuwaza. We cannot deny the influence of swordmanship in the use of the handblade (tegatana).
The Sotai Undo are exercises which uses the kuzushi-no-ri principle of judo (breaking balance principle). In these exercises the use of good posture, proper
balance, correct movement and use of the handblade are further explored. Basically we can say the sotai undo are breaking balance excercises by using the handblade.

Later on Kenji Tomiki devised a set of 15 techniques from which a new randori method can be done.
It was Jigoro Kano who made a randori method for the throwing and holding techniques of the old jujutsu schools, and it was Kenji Tomiki who made a randori
methode for the atemi waza (striking methodes) and kansetsu waza (joint techniques) using the judo principles.In his book Judo and Aikido he described the basic aikido techniques according judo principles. He also added a
set of 15 techniques which he called : New Methods of Randori.
These 15 techniques (jugohon no kata) consist of ;
· 3 atemi waza (striking technique)
· 4 hiji waza (elbow techniques)
· 8 tekubi waza (wrist techniques)
(Judo and Aikido 1st edition 1956 - 9th edition 1970 by Kenji Tomiki)
Kenji Tomiki spent his lifetime on the development of Tomiki Aikido, and is rightfully credited as an outstanding innovator in the field of martial arts.
What many don't know is that in the shadow of this great educator stood another, Hideo Ohba, who worked alongside Kenji Tomiki as his lifelong assistant, and whose own studies in weapons arts also contributed to Tomiki Aikido.
Around 1960 the 15 techniques were replaced by the 17 techniques (junanahon no kata):
· 5 atemi waza (striking techniques)
· 5 hiji waza (elbow techniques)
· 4 tekubi waza (wrist techniques)
· 3 uki waza (floating techniques)
In July 1961 Hideo Oba wrote to the students of Waseda University, where Kenji Tomiki was a professor at the Physical Education Departement :
The junanahon no kata has been organized by Tomiki Shihan. Now, we all should do our best to study the openings
and kuzushi (balance-breaking) in the limitless variations of atemi-waza (striking techniques) and kansetsu-waza (joint techniques) in order to make the techniques effective, (from a passage written by Ohba to the students
of the Waseda Aikido Club, July 1961; Kyogi Aikido Soseiki no Ayumi; Ohba Hideo Sensei o Shinobu (The Early Days of Competition Aikido; with Recollections of Ohba Sensei), Tokyo: Nihon Aikido Kyokai, 1987, p. 1)
Those students were in the beginning all members of the Waseda Judo Club and Kenji Tomiki introduced them to aikido
with the help of Judo Taiso. In 1958 the creation of Waseda Aikido Club was a fact. The Board of the University approved this creation on condition that aikido can be done in a competitive way.
Together with the members of the Waseda Aikido Club, Kenji Tomiki devised a competitve sparring form with an attacker
using a dagger and a defender using aiki-techniques.
Today these aiki-techniques are limited to the techniques found in the Junanahon no kata (17 techniques kata).
Sometimes we have today the impression that Tomiki Aikido is all about competitve sparring with a dagger (Tanto
randori). During Tomiki Aikido tournaments most of the time is spended on tanto randori and this is probable an evolution which was not the intent of Kenji Tomiki.
According to Fumiaki Shishida, professor at Waseda University and Shihan of the Japan Aikido Association, Kenji Tomiki established the basic seventeen techniques not for Tanto-randori, but for Toshu-randori. Toshu-randori is the randori method in which practitioners apply techniques
with bare hands. It was developed not only as a randori method of aikido, but also as a new randori method of judo to develop techniques in the Rikaku-taisei. Rikaku means keeping a distance of Tegatana-awase and Taisei means
a situation of fighting. Tomiki thought that aikido techniques should be applied in the distance of Tegatana-awase." (Shishida 2008).
At this moment there is a tendency amongst Tomiki Aikido practitioners to study again the original concept of
Kenji Tomiki and incorporate grappling judo in the aikido training.
This idea is not new to the aikido world because in 1930, when Admiral Takeshita was training with Morihei Ueshiba,
he took some interesting notes about judo and Ueshibas aikijutsu (which later became aikido).
Professor Shishida wrote an essay about this fact :
Counter techniques against Judo: the process of forming Aikido in 1930s This article will clarify the process of forming aikido in 1930s through analyzing Ueshibas 147 counter techniques against judo. This analysis based upon Takeshitas
notes Kon, which were written between spring 1930 and winter 1931. The Kon is a 252-page set of notes, which have not been studied in the academic literature regarding aikido in Japan despite it has been known among aikido
practitioners. These notes contain 1,095 techniques classified into 39 forms of fighting Author focus on 147 techniques described as Tai judo or counter techniques against judo. (The complete article :http://www.archbudo.com/fulltxt.php?ICID=855001)
Kata and Tomiki Aikido
The development of the competitive sparring style of aikido founded by Tomiki, and its unified organization, the Nihon Aikido Kyokai (Japan Aikido
Association) went on paralel with another interesting development in Tomiki Aikido : the creation of Kata with the purpose to preserve old techniques which were too dangerious to use in randori
Takeshi Inoue, who knows in detail the background of the creation of the kata of the present Association wrote:
In about 1958, we practiced mainly the unsoku, tandoku undo, yonhon no kuzushi (the original version of the
present nanahon no kuzushi) as well as the jugohon no kata (fifteen technique kata). In around 1960, the junanahon no kata (17 technique basic kata) and the roppon no kuzushi were created and then the dai-san no kata was devised
as a kata of classical techniques. During the mid-60 Ohba Sensei and others worked on the creation of the kata forms of the dai-ichi (first) to dai-roku (sixth), which we presently practice as the koryu no kata, in order to
work on techniques for demonstrations and for purposes other than randori. What Ohba Sensei particularly stressed in formulating these kata was the organization of different techniques in such a way that students could learn
connections between techniques easily and naturally. After he had organized the techniques to some extent, Ohba Sensei reported to Tomiki Sensei and demonstrated what he had done for him. He received some advice from Tomiki
Sensei and then added corrections to the kata. ("Bujin Hideo Ohba," Kyogi Aikido Soseiki no Ayumi; Ohba Hideo Sensei o Shinobu, p. 67)
(Takeshi Inoue is one of those students who studied aikido and judo in the early days of Tomiki Aikido.)
The current syllabus of JAA (Japan Aikido Association) includes the following kata :
· Randori no kata ( Junanahon no kata and ura waza)
· Koryu no kata dai san (self defense kata)
· Koryu no kata dai yon (kata of balance breaking)
The Randori no kata has 2 parts
· Omote waza : 17 techniques which we can apply in the tegatana-awase distance
· Ura waza : 10 counter technique
In the ura waza we find techniques which were incorporated in the jugohon no kata (15 techniques) and which were later removed from the kata. Especially
the gyakute kote hineri (kote mawashi) was removed because it was a dangerious technique when it was succesfull. Although it was very difficult to apply.
The Koryu no kata includes 6 kata
In an old film of Kenji Tomiki and Hideo Ohba we can clearly see the origin of the koryu no kata, especially the koryu no kata dai san (number 3). The use
of the knife, sword and spear is a part of this kata. The mastery of this kata gives the aikido practitioner the feeling of going back in time and doing old fashioned self defense. The last part of the dai san kata is a sword
to sword situation and reflects kendo no kata.
The book Budo Renshu by Morihei Ueshiba, written in 1933 is a source of information for those who are studying the koryu no kata of Tomiki Aikido. It is
said that Kenji Tomiki was involved in the composition of this book.
· Koryu no kata dai ichi : traditional aikido techniques which ressembles the techniques of Budo Renshu.
· Koryu no kata dai ni : an extension of dai ichi
· Koryu no kata dai san : a shorter version of the old Kenji Tomiki film. Includes defenses against knife, sword and spear techniques. The spear is used as a vehicle to explain
aikido techniques. Introduction to swordmanship.
· Koryu no kata dai yon : advanced study of the original judo taiso sotai undo.
· Koryu no kata dai go : a very dynamic and fluid demonstration of aikido techniques.
· Koryu no kata dai roku : a study of different kind of speed in training, different combination techniques when the opponent tries to resist or escapes.
Conclusion
Sometimes people are asking : is aikido a form of self defense? or is aikido a form of meditation? or a way of life? and we can keep going on.......
We only can answer with the words of Kenji Tomiki :
Mushin Mugamae as an educational concept of modern Budo
Mushin is a state of mind unclouded by emotions. In this sense, it is not a negative, but a positive state of mind. Fudoshin, Mujushin,
Ku no kokoro are all synonymus of this word. The condition of Mushin is the ultimate ideal, not only from the standpoint of Buddhism, and including Confucianism and Shintoism, but also from that of good morals.
In a modern context, establishing a condition of contest through a tournament is the only way to learn Mushin. By controlling psychological conflict
and transcending the concept of victory or defeat Mushin can be attained. However, to hold a competition, certain restrictions must be put in place and the ideal may be lost through the degeneration of techniques. Training
of proper kata is essential to the acquisition of Mushin.
Budo does not exist without techniques. Today, Budo techniques develop through Kata and Randori training. Mushin Mugamae is the ultimate ideal and
this was attained by superior Japanes budoka.

WAT IS CONCREET DE BEDOELING??
De bedoeling is dat u op regelmatige basis een bericht toevoegt op uw blog. U kan hierin zetten wat u zelf wenst.
- Bijvoorbeeld: u heeft een blog gemaakt voor gedichten. Dan kan u bvb. elke dag een gedicht toevoegen op uw blog. U geeft de titel in van het gedicht en daaronder in het bericht het gedicht zelf. Zo kunnen uw bezoekers dagelijks terugkomen om uw laatste nieuw gedicht te lezen. Indien u meerdere gedichten wenst toe te voegen op eenzelfde dag, voegt u deze toe als afzonderlijke berichten, dus niet in één bericht.
- Bijvoorbeeld:
u wil een blog maken over de actualiteit. Dan kan u bvb. dagelijks een bericht plaatsen met uw mening over iets uit de actualiteit. Bvb. over een bepaalde ramp, ongeval, uitspraak, voorval,... U geeft bvb. in de titel het onderwerp waarover u het gaat hebben en in het bericht plaatst u uw mening over dat onderwerp. Zo kan u bvb. meedelen dat de media voor de zoveelste keer het fout heeft, of waarom ze nu dat weer in de actualiteit brengen,... Of u kan ook meer diepgaande artikels plaatsen en meer informatie over een bepaald onderwerp opzoeken en dit op uw blog plaatsen. Indien u over meerdere zaken iets wil zeggen op die dag, plaatst u deze als afzonderlijke berichten, zo is dit het meest duidelijk voor uw bezoekers.
- Bijvoorbeeld: u wil een blog maken als dagboek. Dagelijks maakt u een bericht aan met wat u er wenst in te plaatsen, zoals u anders in een dagboek zou plaatsen. Dit kan zijn over wat u vandaag hebt gedaan, wat u vandaag heeft gehoord, wat u van plan bent, enz. Maak een titel en typ het bericht. Zo kunnen bezoekers dagelijks naar uw blog komen om uw laatste nieuwe bericht te lezen en mee uw dagboek te lezen.
- Bijvoorbeeld: u wil een blog maken met plaatselijk nieuws. Met uw eigen blog kan u zo zelfs journalist zijn. U kan op uw blog het plaatselijk nieuws vertellen. Telkens u iets nieuw hebt, plaats u een bericht: u geeft een titel op en typt wat u weet over het nieuws. Dit kan zijn over een feest in de buurt, een verkeersongeval in de streek, een nieuwe baan die men gaat aanleggen, een nieuwe regeling, verkiezingen, een staking, een nieuwe winkel, enz. Afhankelijk van het nieuws plaatst u iedere keer een nieuw bericht. Indien u veel nieuws heeft, kan u zo dagelijks vele berichten plaatsen met wat u te weten bent gekomen over uw regio. Zorg ervoor dat u telkens een nieuw bericht ingeeft per onderwerp, en niet zaken samen plaatst. Indien u wat minder nieuws kan bijeen sprokkelen is uiteraard 1 bericht per dag of 2 berichten per week ook goed. Probeer op een regelmatige basis een berichtje te plaatsen, zo komen uw bezoekers telkens terug.
- Bijvoorbeeld: u wil een blog maken met een reisverslag. U kan een bericht aanmaken per dag van uw reis. Zo kan u in de titel opgeven over welke dag u het gaat hebben, en in het bericht plaatst u dan het verslag van die dag. Zo komen alle berichten onder elkaar te staan, netjes gescheiden per dag. U kan dus op éénzelfde dag meerdere berichten ingeven van uw reisverslag.
- Bijvoorbeeld:
u wil een blog maken met tips op. Dan maakt u telkens u een tip heeft een nieuw bericht aan. In de titel zet u waarover uw tip zal gaan. In het bericht geeft u dan de hele tip in. Probeer zo op regelmatige basis nieuwe tips toe te voegen, zodat bezoekers telkens terug komen naar uw blog. Probeer bvb. 1 keer per dag, of 2 keer per week een nieuwe tip zo toe te voegen. Indien u heel enthousiast bent, kan u natuurlijk ook meerdere tips op een dag ingeven. Let er dan op dat het meest duidelijk is indien u pér tip een nieuw bericht aanmaakt. Zo kan u dus bvb. wel 20 berichten aanmaken op een dag indien u 20 tips heeft voor uw bezoekers.
- Bijvoorbeeld:
u wil een blog maken dat uw activiteiten weerspiegelt. U bent bvb. actief in een bedrijf, vereniging of organisatie en maakt elke dag wel eens iets mee. Dan kan je al deze belevenissen op uw blog plaatsen. Het komt dan neer op een soort van dagboek. Dan kan u dagelijks, of eventueel meerdere keren per dag, een bericht plaatsen op uw blog om uw belevenissen te vertellen. Geef een titel op dat zeer kort uw belevenis beschrijft en typ daarna alles in wat u maar wenst in het bericht. Zo kunnen bezoekers dagelijks of meermaals per dag terugkomen naar uw blog om uw laatste belevenissen te lezen.
- Bijvoorbeeld: u wil een blog maken uw hobby. U kan dan op regelmatige basis, bvb. dagelijks, een bericht toevoegen op uw blog over uw hobby. Dit kan gaan dat u vandaag een nieuwe postzegel bij uw verzameling heeft, een nieuwe bierkaart, een grote vis heeft gevangen, enz. Vertel erover en misschien kan je er zelfs een foto bij plaatsen. Zo kunnen anderen die ook dezelfde hobby hebben dagelijks mee lezen. Als u bvb. zeer actief bent in uw hobby, kan u dagelijks uiteraard meerdere berichtjes plaatsen, met bvb. de laatste nieuwtjes.

WAT ZIJN DIE "REACTIES"?
Een bezoeker kan op een bericht van u een reactie plaatsen. Een bezoeker kan dus zelf géén bericht plaatsen op uw blog zelf, wel een reactie. Het verschil is dat de reactie niet komt op de beginpagina, maar enkel bij een bericht hoort. Het is dus zo dat een reactie enkel gaat over een reactie bij een bericht. Indien u bvb. een gedicht heeft geschreven, kan een reactie van een bezoeker zijn dat deze het heel mooi vond. Of bvb. indien u plaatselijk nieuws brengt, kan een reactie van een bezoeker zijn dat deze nog iets meer over de feiten weet (bvb. exacte uur van het ongeval, het juiste locatie van het evenement,...). Of bvb. indien uw blog een dagboek is, kan men reageren op het bericht van die dag, zo kan men meeleven met u, u een vraag stellen, enz. Deze functie kan u uitschakelen via "Instellingen" indien u dit niet graag heeft.
WAT IS DE "WAARDERING"?
Een bezoeker kan een bepaald bericht een waardering geven. Dit is om aan te geven of men dit bericht goed vindt of niet. Het kan bvb. gaan over een bericht, hoe goed men dat vond. Het kan ook gaan over een ander bericht, bvb. een tip, die men wel of niet bruikbaar vond. Deze functie kan u uitschakelen via "Instellingen" indien u dit niet graag heeft.
