Weekly Written Assignment 4.1 – Blogs
Blog URL: http://popularcultures-dlanning.blogspot.com
The power of the blog has now come full circle. No longer is it just a fad, it has become a way for all to gather information covering all kinds of topics.
Blogs began as anyone’s soapbox used to discuss a variety of topics from the point of view of the writer. Without extensive research, one didn’t know whether the blog was a valid source of information via the internet.
Blogs have now become a solid source used to research and follow the opinions of others concerning topics of interest. Many bloggers use this avenue to get their information out to the masses and our changing culture is accepting blogs by embracing this practice.
Free blog sites allow the novice blogger to begin using this popular culture vehicle without any charge to them. As you search through blog sites you will see that you can find a full array of information on any topic and the pros and cons of the topic as people respond to the main blog and the comments of that blog.
