Things I learned

When we started the blog I had previously experienced other factors of Web 2.0 like wikis, or social networking. I knew what a blog was but I had never experienced the making of one of them. It all stated when as a group we had to bring up a theme which we decided it will be TV series.

Once we had the theme, we started playing around with the different applications and features, in other words getting familiar with the program. Once this was done we learned not only how to post a new entry but also how to embedded videos, gadgets, hyperlinks and most of all the importance of our followers. The different components we found when using blogger make me realize that if they are all applied correctly then a blog is guaranteed to be successful. Another important factor was teamwork since the work was equally divided into the 5 of us and we all needed to work on our assigned tasks.

What I Learned About Blogging

Hi everyone! Its time to say goodbye. Our group class blog practice is over.

As a group we had fun coordinating who was doing what for the blog. It took hours of planning to make our blog successful. I learned that to have a blog one needs to be fully dedicated to it. 

I'm now able to define words in terms of the internet, for example interactivity, hypertext, and link. The concept of what blogging truly is is now clear to me also. It involves a mixture of knowledge and personal opinion. Every blogger has the possibility to create his/her own identity in the blog.

When ever I read blogs, I also thought to myself, "it must be complicated to create a blog." Now I know its actually the contrary to complicated to create a blog. It takes hours of dedication, as I said above, but with the way technology and the internet have been evolving its pretty simple to set up a blog. With the different features a blog offers (widgets, RSS, linking, design templates, tags...) anyone that has a computer and know how to use it can create a blog.
