creating my own blog


In class this past week I created my first blog on blogger powered by Google. I got to create my blog page the way that I wanted it to be. And one of the most challenging things that came up when I was creating my blog page was what type of background do I want to make it look cool but also stick out when people checkout my page when I post things on it. The other problem that I had creating my blog was what kind of widgets to put on it so can stick out when people check my blog out. I mean when I think of the widgets to put up do I go with the things that I like and follow on other social networking tools that I use or do I go with things that are related to the class. So that was tough for me to do but I figured it out in the end and I hope everyone likes it. But it will be interesting to see what others people's blogs and their widgets and also what they are. I mean I have been a social networking freak for quite a while because I already have a Face book account, twitter and now I'm blogging and it's new for me but I have read different blogs on different topics. But for this class computer and technology it will be pretty cool to blog about the different topics we learned in class throughout the semester. Along with the different social networking tools that we will learn from our fellow classmates when they give their presentations on their topic and it will be pretty cool to give our opinion about it. I mean I didn't really have many challenges with learning how to blog because is just another social networking tool and it’s been around for quite some time and I feel that I am pro with blogging. Even though this is my first blogging page I just feel that I have enough social networking tools in my life and I don't need any more.
I think blogging improves the way we communicate with people especially in today's world with the technology getting better as the years go on. Blogging makes your voice be heard on certain topics that you agree with or you don't like and also you can voice your opinion on what you think should happen on a topic that the person has blogged on his or her page. With many people following this person on his blog page you can get a controversy going on this topic and will be going back and forth with the people and their opinions which is kind of like an argument in person but with blogging it’s the online experience. But over the next few years I think blogging will improve in many different ways to make it easier for everyone to blog and I think there'll be an app someday where you can blog and you can post it to Face book or tweet about it on Twitter which will be so cool and just make social networking and communication even better.
My experience of creating my first blog is pretty cool because I get to see people comment on what I post and see what people have to say and give their opinions and also think what is best. But also I will be able to look at other people's blogs and comment on their things of what there topic is about. But also I'll change my blog and how it looks every once in a while because I think I don't want to keep it the same as it looks now I want to change around and make it look interesting. So that way if someone looks my blog they might think oh that looks cool I wanted something like that and for me it just gives me a variety. But I really enjoyed creating a blog because it's just another social networking tool that I can use.

  1. I think I will also change my background on my blog every now and then. I think it is fun to always have something different going on. I think you are right about having an app that will let people post to their blog from their phones. I bet it probably already exists.
