Making a Blog Work

        Creating a blog is not that difficult. I was surprised at how simple it really was. Compared to last semester, where the blog was made up of just posts, this blog was much more interesting to work on. Having the visuals was great. Wallpaper, images, and font were nice to design and change. This blog took a lot of creativity, time, and effort. Following the directions from the handout made creating this blog very straight forward. One thing that was different from last semester was the fact that this blog could be viewed by anyone with an Internet connection, which was not possible before. This particular aspect really made me think about my audience. Scanning in pictures from the book and downloading them from the camera proved to be challenging, and definitely took several tries before it actually worked. Making the posts themselves was the most time consuming aspect, otherwise everything else was artistic inclination and technical work.

  1. It seems like you got a lot out of the blog Alina, which is great. I also noticed that you got some good comments posted from other students, so that means people are reading it, too. I hope you will keep writing, either this blog, or another one. I know that Eng 1B will keep you busy with some type of writing!
