Blogging

Blogging

I was newly introduced to the world of “blogging” about two months ago. At first I thought it was a joke. I thought people with no lives who sat on a computer screen all day were the people who wrote blogs. Wow! I was wrong.

I found out that there is a completely different world on the internet for people to share there feelings and experiences. But blogging is more than that. Many families and friends who are separated by thousands of miles use blogs to communicate and post pictures of each other.

There are also many different types of blogs. Some are focused by genre; such as: education, travel, and political. Some blogs are focused specifically on education. Schools and classrooms use them to post homework assignments and class information. The most common type of blog would be a personal blog. This type of blog is a blog where people go to express something they have done or something they have experienced. Generally speaking, you are free to put whatever you want on a blog. If you want to review a movie, then go for it. If you want to explain how to build a table, then go for it. Just remember it has to be readable for people.
