HW 2: Burstein's 12 key ideas

I'm responding to David Kline and Bursteins's Blog! How the Newest Media Revolution is changing politics, Business, and Culture.

Burstein stated 12 key ideas about blogging and I feel that I most connect and interest with the second one which was that ‘Blogs are particularity interesting because they marry so much personality and attitude with this complex mix of software technology.’ I think it is amazing how a blog can contain so much information and you can gain an enormous amount of information on one topic from just a single page. A blog enables you to show your creativity and lets you stress the exact way you feel towards a certain topic. With all the options you have on your blog to change the background, layout and have it any way you want lets you show who you are and gives the readers a sense of understanding who you are and what your personality is like.
To me I think that is enabling us to keep in touch with long lost friends and holds together the bond of friendship no matter the distance apart. Blogs allow you yourself to post a certain topic and state how you feel and allows other readers with the same interests to comment the way they address the topics giving you others ways to look at the same situation outside the box.
Blogs are changing the world around us. Everyday more and more people make a blog about their everyday life such as a journal or even about a topic in society that is on their mind at a certain time wishing to gain more information. Before we know it we will be getting all our needed information from a certain blog.
