What's Up With Blogging


Over the past few days I have been looking at many other blogs and I have to say that most of them are pretty amazing, informative, and just have a lot of things going on. I mostly looked at fashion and beauty blogs. Because of the subject they always had a lot of pictures and video’s posted along with a little summary of whatever it was they were posting about. I also found that the blogger always gave a little bit of inside on themselves as well. So if they did a review on a certain product they would discuss how they felt about it and more importantly they open the floor for discussions, asking their viewers to comment on their blog to see if they had the same or a different experience. I also found that when a blogger customized their blog and added pictures of themselves, or in general any pictures at all, it made the blog more interesting. The titles of the blogs were usually what caught my attention and geared me to read them, so now I know that if I don’t want anyone to read my blogs I should add a boring title. Some of the things that I did not like about some of the blogs that I saw were that they wrote in a way that was very text like or unprofessional. Some of the blogs also went on a little too long without enough information about the topic, it was just mostly ranting.
For my blog I want to make it very pleasing to look at. I found that for me pictures and videos just drew me in as well as catchy titles, so maybe in the future I can become a little more creative. I also liked how the blogs where easy and fun to read but still very grammatically correct and just well planned out. So it doesn’t feel like your reading a boring five page essay but you are not reading a cryptic message on a piece of ripped out paper. These bloggers make it feel like they are just talking to you, their personality and views just come out of their blogs and that is something that I wish to achieve with my blog. As far as goals for my blog, I guess I’ll go with having at least two comments every month, so that I can at least think that what I’ am blogging about it interesting. 


So here are two links to blogs that I found interesting
