Issues in readings

For one blogging is a relatively new phenomenon and by the rate its going its definitely fast becoming a new form of communication and news. It is amazing how quickly people get on board and try out these new forms of technology. People have created blogs on everything from socks, to tuppaware, fashion to aliens. Blogging is a good way to keep people interacting and sharing ideas and interests. Take Facebook - everyone ultimately started getting an account once they started to see that it was taking off and fast becoming popular.

So for me, the "I am Fashion" blog clearly exemplifies the whole idea of keeping people with similar interests and ideas together and have them coming back for more. Because fashion is an ever changing world, this blog keeps up-to-date and looks at the most coverted things from Gossip Girl to Models.

There are many benefits to blogging and it should be duely noted that it will not be going anywhere anytime soon, and more people should start embracing it and using it as a new form of communication and also a new tool for disseminating news stories. Sometimes blogs and podcasts can be more reliable then the news. Who would have thought.

So, Blogging should be embraced. It allows people to keep in regular contact with other people that have similar interests and it allows for regular updates to information that may interest a much larger and more significant group of people.
