Upon reading this article I feel I am gaining more knowledge about blogs as I go along. There is more to them than meets the eye. This particular entry trys in my opinion to compare blogs to texts but when doing so make you realize that they are a lot different than books.
The author here describes how weblogs are completely different from each others. The author states that weblogging is a very diverse way of communicating which I thought was an extremely good way of describing this activity. I enjoyed learning that the author believed weblogs were constantly informing the user of changes in society. Blogs can have a reflection on what happens within the life of an author which can be interesting to learn.
From this the opinion I have gathered about weblogs is that they can constantly be updated, unlike textbooks or other types of hardcopy books there is always room for improvement through blogging. Also there is no designated place where someone reading a blog should begin or end - they can read as they desire which I think is beneficial.
A few other things I have picked from reading this particular article includes strong views such as a weblog can never be classified as being complete - it can constantly be altered and updated. I am intrigued the way that this author has voiced their opinion of how they weblogging to be seen in the future. He believes they are becoming so popular that within a few years they will like new stations receive advertisements in order to make money online. I think this is very interesting as people will be able to develop their weblogs at a faster pace and with all the revenue generated there is endless possibilities for how they can be portrayed to particular audiences and cultures throughout the world. I think the author believes and has a good point that we are only seeing of the beginning of weblogging and in time it will become more popular than writing novels etc.
