Unit 1: Making a blog

            My first assignment was to create a blog. Which as you can see I have done. I have enjoyed it a lot so far, I love that you can personalize your background, and make your font however you want, and you can see the type of person someone is through their style of blog. I am excited to get started. 
            I have a Myspace (which I haven't used sense I got my Facebook), I have a Facebook, and I have also tried online dating. I enjoy the internet for social networking, but not for dating. ha. It isn't really my thing. The benefit of Facebook is that you get to see how everyone is doing, meet family members that you didn't even know you had, and stay in contact with someone you might have gone to the 1st grade with. 
          I learned that a lot of people blog, that it is fun and really common. I guess I just never really got into it, and never thought that I would enjoy it as much as I already have, and I've barely gotten started. 
         I enjoy being able to have the internet, but sometimes wish that it wasn't invented yet. Go back to spending time in the library instead of looking up information online, or having to look in a dictionary for a definition of a word instead of just getting on the computer. I know that the internet is very helpful, and I'm thankful we have it, it is useful to an extent, but some people take advantage of our technology, and I can only imagine what the next 10 years will be like. :) 
Enough for now, 
Ash

  1. Hi, Ashley:

    I'm enjoying your enthusiasm. A blog is a great way to share your ideas and your personality. And it is available wherever you have internet access which can come in handy.

    I hope you find the class interesting and informative.

    Cheers,
    Andrea
