Blogs, Bloggers, Blogging

So we are in the or fifth week of this school and the question is how do we feel as bloggers right now. After reading the articles I must say that I have not really dived all the way in on this blogging experience. I mean here is a class where we get an oppurtunity every week to wirte about whatever is on our mind and to be creative. I have written some interesting pieces but I do not feel I have fully captured what it means to blog on a weekly basis. Based on the question about democratization I would not say I have been blogging in that manner. This week was the first time that I used an image in my blog and it seems as though everyone else knows how to incorporate images and videos. As for me I am still trying to figure out how to get a you tube video on my blog. (I know that sounds idiotic but I'm not sure how to put a video on). I do to expand on my blogging skills as the weeks progress and hope that by the end of this class I will have gained the knowledge needed to be able to add video to my blogs, hyper links, etc. To this point I have just picked a topic of interest and written about it on a weekly basis. I have not been very consistent touching on everything from sports to the events that transpired between Rihanna and Chris Brown. What I hope to achieve with this blog is to get people to think about different topics and be able to reflect on them. I plan on using the democratization strategy more and figuring out how to add video for the next post. I must say I am barely getting my feet wet and I am ready to dive in.
