Connective Writing is...
...the ability to publish in a variety of media with the intention of connecting it to others who share an interest (or passion) in the topic.
It's the first step in preparing kids for living and learning in the 21st Century.
"Students will be able to create, grow and navigate their own personal learning networks in safe, effective and ethical ways."
Repeat after me: "I want my students to be found on the Internet." -

- Reflective, meta-cognitive writing on practice without links. (Complex writing, but simple blogging, I think. Commenting would probably fall in here somewhere.)
- Links with analysis and synthesis that articulates a deeper understanding or relationship to the content being linked and written with potential audience response in mind. (Real blogging)
- Extended analysis and synthesis over a longer period of time that builds on previous posts, links and comments. (Complex blogging)
