Lecture 2: The Blog

  • June,11th,2009 at 11:37 PM

Ok so after last weeks lecture it got me thinking, i could probably be good at this course i mean cmon its about the internet.  Im pretty sure that where i spend most of my time, wether it be procrastinating or doing something viable like studying.

Ok so this weeks lecture was on the blog, before this lecture the only thing i thought of when i heard the word blog was Perez Hilton who is apprentyl the king of the blogging world.

So i began my quest for blogging knoledge, i researched all of the blogging services that were mentioned in the lecture.  I reasearched Blogger, Blogspot, Wordpress and Tumblr.  As you can proably tell by now i chose Tumblr.

Why you ask? because it is the most simple and easy to use.  It is not heavily text based like its couterparts, but rather it gives you the ability to post images, movies, sound files, quotes and really the list goes on.

I feel that tumblr is best for the creative type blogger rather than your normal amature journalist.

So with my blogging engine chosen i am ready to knock Perez Hilton off his pedestall!
