Blogging

Blogging was a huge thing in the 1990s, and people were excited enough to post their daily lives online for all to see. Twitter and Facebook somewhat took over the aspect of that by making it so much easier to tell someone of what just happened and whom you met.

The blogs remain relevent, however, and have evolved into something that is more than daily lives. It has given birth to a whole new generation of writers, who have used it to their advantage to create soem of the most imfomative, creative and relevant websites of today. Having been writing this blog for a while, I realised that it is important to be ethical and responsible when writing. We hide behind an IP address and for any blog to be successful, it has to reflect a sense of responsiblity over the writing. Someone out there might be mis-informed about certain topics that you have blogged about that that's just not doing to do any good.

Having established that, the next step I had to do was make sure the blog was designed well. Certain colours like white and black were chosen because they were easy on the eye, and I had to make sure the reader was focused on the content. The good blogs are the ones who do have have fancy colours that just beg for you to leave.

It is interesting to note that writing a blog has allowed me to gain much more knowledge with the research put in. I would encourage everyone to do so, and in the process, gain more by sharing with others.
