Introduction to Blogging

For someone who has never blogged, created a blog, or even thought about creating a blog, the most challenging part was actually making the site. I’m not saying I have anything against blogs in general, however, some of them can seem a little narcissistic at times. Luckily for everyone in our class we only really talk about our personal lives, specifically our Internet use in posts 3 and 4. The most challenging part is the same as the most surprising part, in different ways though. The most challenging part, for me, was getting over the mental block that I had to create a blog being partially biased against them. And the most surprising part to creating the blog was how easy it was. A few clicks of the mouse and a catchy title and I’m there. My opinion of blogs hasn’t really changed seeing as I created it ten minutes ago but I’m sure it will as I continue to post. Blogs and Facebook are similar in the sense that it is a place to post opinions and have an opportunity to view others. They are different because Facebook is much easier to contact and find others. Blogs and writing have many more connections than blogs and Facebook because a blog is list of writings. When you are blogging, you are writing or typing I guess. You can choose where to publish your writings, whether it is a blog, book, or journal, but the act of blogging and writing are on in the same.
