BLOGS >

I completely love the idea of blogging. I love the fact that blogging incorporates facts and opinions of certain topics. Blogging gives the opportunity to the reader to express the opinion. A newspaper does not really give the reader the opportunity to express their opinions about certain articles unless it is an article posted online. The writer is not able to get feedback about their article back unlike a blog post. Writers are able to know what topics people are interested in. Writers of blogs also get feedback on their writing style. I think I enjoy reading blogs because I think they are personal. Most newspaper articles are all facts, I like how blogs allows the writer to inform the reader of a certain topic while giving them their personal opinion of that particular topic. I find myself more interested in personal blogs than news blogs. I really enjoy seeing people’s blogs on Tumblr. Some of the blogs I come across on Tumblr are informative and others are entertainment blogs full of music and pictures. I do not believe that blogs on criminal investigations hold an important value. In my research I came across a few blogs that were dedicated to criminal investigations but I did not find a lot. I do not think they are that important because people rather hear just the facts of this particular topic, rather than the writer’s opinion.
