  1. A blog is a web publishing system where people can share their thoughts and communicate with other people about issues or ideas. I think blogging has become more popular in the last 3 to 4 years because technology advanced as in you can blog from your cell phones and computers. Blogs are being used in classrooms for educational purposes. If I created a blog, it would be about my life and school. It would include projects that are due, and thoughts I’ve had throughout the day. My intended audience would be mostly all of my friends from school.

  2. A blog is an online journal or diary that lets people post comments or thoughts to the public, where others can read and respond to. It is usually about one specific topic. I think blogging has become such a popular tool in the last 3 or 4 years because they gained momentum with the introduction of services that allows the users to publish their blogs easier without having to use an HTML code. Alot of the blogging is being used in the educational settings such as schools. If I were to create a blog I would make it about Justin Bieber and my intended audience would be the Beliebers.

  4. Hi, my name is Delaney Jones. To me, a blog is website where you can vent what you feel about certain topics. You can discuss them with other people who follow and comment. You can also follow others and learn more about other people’s opinions. I think blogging has become such a popular tool in the last 3 to 4 years because people can blog from their phones, iPods, etc. Technology has grown so much. Blogs are being used in schools for educational purposes. If I created a blog, I would write about how my day went and what things annoyed me and what made me smile. I also would probably put down what I’ve noticed throughout my day. My intended audience would be kids my age or maybe even older.
