Well this week out discussions focused on blogging and the impacts of blogging on the mainstream media. The information provided was thought provoking and very interesting to say the least. I never really thought about how blogging and the future of it has affected and will continue to affect my daily life.
I get the majority of my news and information via the internet by reading blogs and watching news segments online. I believe that blogging has made it more convenient for people to obtain their information immediately. We live in a hurried society these days and blogging has had it's fair share of affecting this type of lifestyle.
Overall I believe blogging will have a positive impact on the future of media. I am sure local newspapers and news stations are not at all excited about the future of blogging; however, it is a sign of the times and there is not much anyone can do to stop it!

It's that time again!
Good evening everyone! Well here we go again. Another day, another class. However, this one, even though it is a requirement for my degree, I have been looking forward to more so than others. I obviously did not become an English major for nothing. I want to write. I love to write. I love to get wrapped up in my own thoughts and feelings and rhetoric. At times it can be a great escape from reality. Hence why I was so excited about taking this course.
I am already thoroughly enjoying reading all of the other classmates posts and their thoughts on the views of the world. I enjoy giving my feedback and seeing what others opinions are. This first week talking about different issues has been enlightening for me. Remembering back on my days growing up of watching television have brought back a lot of memories. I only hope that I can learn the good and the bad from the way I watched television, particularly the types of shows I watched, and make sure my children enjoy a positive experience from their time in front of the tube.
Well I look forward to an exciting and interesting next few weeks!
