Argumentation
Argument Trio And Web 2.0
When I started reading the Trio on blogging I really started to think about the questions it was wanting me to think about. Before this class I was not a blogger. I have enjoyed what we have been doing for the past weeks, but I didn't really see it as blogging or sharing it with the world. I just viewed what I did was writing. What I gained from blogging from this class honestly is to enjoy writing again and be reminded why I love doing it so much. I think the similarities of blogging and being a published author is you don't really know who is reading what you wrote. I think with blogging you are able to get instantaneous feedback, with the other you might eventually or never get feedback. I have never really read any blogs and to be honest I still do not have the pull to do that, it would have to be something really interesting to make me want to search out a blog.
My opinions waver back and forth with the Web 2.0 article. The writer says it is not a good idea because all we would have is writers and no readers. I am an avid reader and gain so much knowledge in reading others work. Sometimes reading another's work gives me an avenue to start from. I also think and ask myself should everyone think that they can be an author? Not everyone is going to have the ability to be a noteworthy author. Again on the other hand there is freedom of speech and everyone should have the chance or opportunity to express themselves through what ever medium they choose.
Agreed!
