^^^^^Blogging is many‐to‐many conversation. The writer (“poster”) gets to express. The reader gets to assess what other people really think – at least for the moment. Blogging is temporary, emotional, reactive, often unsubstantiated, and not “peer reviewed.” It just appears. Some blogs carry weight. Blogs can contribute to major sociological events: to wit, the election of our President. Blogs were and still are a significant part of Obama's on-line presence as we collectively go about the change.
^^^^^ In blogs, anonymous people get to say what they know, how they feel, question—or just rag on for a moment. These qualities are the opposite of scholarly, professional, peer-reviewed presentations of reality. People’s expressions, while transitory, accumulate in hubs to create a new “collective consciousness.” What can we learn from blogs? Typically the decision “to blog or not to blog” is a private one. In this class, we were invited to blog. We experienced the feeling of the form, and we learned about ourselves and our peers. Sometimes, part of learning is how we, as communicators, come across. If the message we intend is not the message heard, blog threads weave in time, so we can 'tweak them.
^^^^^ The flexibility of quick text fits today. My
