Blogs

Blogs (Internal and External)- Blogs are especially useful with sharing information rapidly and for easy access. There are blogs that are used internally within organization to keep employees up to date with information in regards to new company policies and procedures. An external blog can enlighten a person to new information in regards to a certain subject; it can receive feedback from people reading the blog and can give people a different side of a company. Personally I feel that a blog is a more personal opinion of a subject from a particular person or group of people. Blogs can be positive or contribute to the negative side of society. Because blogs are not monitored as much as a social networking page, people can utilize their first amendment right a lot more. I originally hear of a blog a few years back, an associate of mine introduced me to blogs. We were bored at work and she suggested a few gossip “websites”. This was my first introduction to blogging. I noticed how people where able to read the stories, look at the pictures and make comments. It was a very good interactive experience. People can create screen names and accounts that can identify who they are, once they post comments.
