Blogging is harder than i thought!
So i got on the computer and looked up the New York Times Blog and the first thing i noticed was they had blogs for every subject that you can think of like business, finance and technology and even sports. It was all infront of you and easy to find so you knew exactly what you wanted to read. I clicked on sports and saw a hockey blog named "Slap Shot". It seemed as i was just reading a short article, it had no personality and was very plain and boring somthing you would read in a newspaper. I did like how there was a video that you were able to watch and have a visual and it was pretty short and right to the point. Time magazine was a bit different in the sense that there wasnt as many options as the New Yrok Times had here were 4 blogs with only 4 stories in each topic. I looked at the entertainment and a short clip popped up and under it was a little 3 paragraph story or blog. I did have some personality but also bias as some people might comment as being wrong, He comments by saying "Today, honestly, im just not entirely sure what exactly to expect from an Eddie Murphy hosted award show". NPR was like the others more like a short article that didnt really catch the readers attention but did give you some information. I looked up celebrity gossip blog and it was vert different from the regular news blogs. There were many blogs with titles that just caught your eye and pictures that made you check it out and read. Of course the blogs were mostly comments that the author said and had a lot of personality behind it. They were not emberassed to say what they had in mind and wrote what they felt which appeals to people but not to the people they wrote about. The three blogs Tagans Kitchen, Productive Flourishing and Rebecca''s Pocket really made their blogs seem as they were talking to you and telling you a story. They stuck to one topic and really put as much detail as they could. They organized their blogs nicely with some pictures in between to give a visual. The way they put their blog together and somehow put their personality in their writing was put in there very well. I learned how to better understand the topic and how to make everything really flow to get your readers attention. I need to better understand how to put my blog together and really put my personality out there so not only i have a better time writing it but my readers will enjoy reading it. Never thought blogging would take so much time to put together!
