Blog Writing Assingment

A blog is a type of website, usually maintained by an individual with regular entries of commentary, descriptions of events, or other material such as graphics or videos. Back in the 1900’s there was no way of sharing photos and graphic, but now blogs have created an easy way or sharing. There are many ways blogs have become a big and useful part of society today. With this new found technology there are good and bad aspects that come along with it. There are aspects of business, social, entertainment, news, and recreational that blogs focus on.
An example of why a blog may not be good these days is how fast it can spread rumors. It has also become very obsessive over the last years for people to be sitting at home on their computers. Also on peoples blogs there are curses said, threats made, and illegal child pornography posted. There is also cyber bullying, which is becoming a very serious thing in the United States. It has gained much national attention of the past few years because of various suicides. There is now a law being considered that would make cyber bullying a federal offensive and a person can even see jail time if they participate.
There are many reasons why blogs are a good thing. They can spread major news stories around the world a lot faster then they could have ever been. A few decades ago it could take weeks for people to find out the news, but nowadays people can find out the news right away and accesses blogs right from their phones. Another example of why blogs are a good thing is it can reconnect people. If there is some one you have not seen from college and you see they have a blog you can instantly reconnect and become friends again with that person.
There are over three million active blogs in the country. People are updating themselves everyday and new outlets are continuing to feed the news to the public. The creation of these blogs is decreasing the use of newspapers and other new materials that have been used widely in the past.
Many people in the world of different kinds have blogs. Celebrities, professional athletes, construction workers, and chef’s can all have blogs and all do. They update their status for everyone in the world to see. People gain interest in this people and follow all of their postings.
