BLOG FICTION

Writing has become an external technology through the use of computers, it is becoming even more brief as website such as Blogspot and Twitter makes it even. Allowing most recent news to fly as quickly as possible. We humans have naturally embrace writing and it has become part of ourselves and life style enabling us to create new ways of making it quicker and briefly to transmit a massage.

A Blog in my own definition is an extended diary, writing about a particular or different topic, putting asking and crating ideas for the topic. To be a blogger, one have to have a regular input to the blog. A blog is not one without followers who contribute to it by adding comments, like agreeing or disagreeing with a topic. It should be simple, clear and easy to understand. Today, blogging is seen as the easiest ways to voice out opinions. Majority of politicians like Barak Obama and celebrities are using these means of communication to reach to their audience. But then they are also used as a means of blackmail WHY? Blog is it a save Bug?

It is seen as a quicker way of transmitting information, it can also be seen as a weapon for destroying people. Example are politicians who would want to have peoples opinion, they get both good and bad ones.

We spoke in class, Blog is gradually used as a primary source of NEWS for people, and it is as good as being on TV. Even the politicians and celebrities have no control of it any more. We are talking about Blogs today, what are we going to be talking about it in the next ten years? Wouldn’t there be a much quicker ways of sending these massages? If we do, would it be also praising and blackmailing celebrities and politicians? I’m sure they would like to find a way of diminishing the blackmails and bad reviews.

In the next ten years, a student would not only be studying about blogs. There might me much more to talk about. We are getting close to both politicians and celebrities every day. Today you can easily send a politician an e-mail, write on their blog or twitter them. What is it going to be like in the next ten years, would one be able to speak to them in a little video technology device built in a mobile phone? And will one be able to track where and what they are doing at a particular time?

Studying about Bloggs can’t only help celebrities and politicians but also we as students and future writers. It can be use as a way of voicing out to the public and getting our opening weighed by the public. This is a very good tool for an up coming writers and journalists because this will not only help them discoverer if the public is interested on what they are saying, it will also help them know what to right how and when.
