BLOGS, BLOGS, AND MORE BLOGS! What do you think?

People are always wanting to become a "Bloggers", whether it be personal or professional. It can be interesting how people compose their blogs. Some look so engaging while others do not. Since I'm giving this " blog life" a shot I decided I would do some research of my own. I came across a few blogs. Some I enjoyed and really admire, while others not so much. I like to start off with the negative and the blogs I didn't enjoy as much and then ending on a good note. 

 The first blog I came across was:
All the Xbox One Indie, Third-Party and First-Party Launch Titles by Matt Peckham

 The moment I opened this blog I knew I did not like it before even reading the post and what it is about. The layout to me looked more like a article then blog. I do understand that this is a professional blog, but in my eyes it looks like a advertisement more so.  As I read through the article and learned a little about the Xbox, I felt like it left me hanging. Maybe the author intended to leave suspense, but I truly feel that there was not enough information provided. This made me want to browse through Google to research more about this item, that is if I was a Xbox fan. I give this blog a 4.

 The second blog I came across was: 
Perez Hilton by Perez Hilton

 Visually when I opened this blog it was eye catching to me. Without reading this blog, visually I was attracted to it. When it comes to the content of the blog it would very person to person. For me personally I enjoy coming home browsing the web and reading about the latest Hollywood drama, break ups, etc. In a way, its a way to get away from the real world and just RELAX! I really enjoy all the different tabs there are such as CocoPerez, Khloe Kardashian, Selena Gomez, etc. You can easily navigate to specific celebrities you would like to read about. Also Perez Hilton has his own TV channel! Now how cool is that?! This to me is kind of a more personal way to connect with his audience which I find really cool. Also the organization skills are wonderful in my opinion. It is really simple and to the T but not boring. Its kinda like comparing a Apple iPhone and Android, haha. Its professional but yet simple and easy to navigate. All in all I would give this blog a 9.

 Last but not least:
Pet MD: (Tragedy at the Zoo: Tiger Keeper Who Made the Rules Dies After Breaking the Rules)

 Visually this is a professional blog. Before you even begin to read you know you will be reading creditable and knowledgeable information. This blog is a professional blog along with very informative. For people like me who are interesting in Veterinary studies, blogs such as this one can be very informative and helpful. Even this specific post for example is a great way to inform and teach young vets how important it is to know your boundaries and respect the rules whether you made them of not. As we all probably know rules exist for reasons. I really think its awesome that you can subscribe to this page if your interested in receiving daily news letter. This way you don't have to worry about visiting the actual page, but instead reading it through the news letters. Another great tool in this blog is the navigation panel. You can easily locate what exactly you are searching for. This is a great tool.  I would rate this blog a 10.

 Blogs are a great way to share your many many many different things but it is important to keep it organized and appealing. The first thing a person sees when entering a blog is the layout. Let me tell you, it is really easy to hit the big X in the corner!

Entry #6: Adopt DON'T Shop!

We have all heard it and seen it, "Adopt Don't Shop". What does this mean and why are people so passionate about this slogan? When you buy from a local breeder you are actually supporting euthanizing at your local pounds. Ever animals that enters a no kill shelter has a time frame of how long they are going to keep the animal before euthanizing it and if they think the animal will be sold. When you purchase a and al from a 3rd party breeder, your decreasing other animals lives in shelters. 2.7 MILLION  adoptable cats and dogs are euthanized in the United States. Something great about adopting a animal is that not only are you saving a life, but this animal most likely comes micro chipped, spayed/ neutered, vaccinated, and possibly food. Animals at a shelter are happy and healthy pets who are just waiting for their human. But what is something that really sticks out? The price! The price for a fully vaccinated, spayed/neutured, and microchip pets is cheap! A breeder...

Entry 11: Final Blog Reflection

The first day of class we were introduced to becoming a blogger and author. My first thoughts about this idea about blogging in a English 102 class was great. I was very excited for something different and new. Every English class is different but most are very similar. The idea that students create a blog and 50% of it is self generated topics was a wonderful idea. I enjoyed writing every single entry. My favorite was the self generated blogs. These were my favorite because it was a way I could express my personal opinion and share what interests me. Along with the self generated topics we has great topics that were instructed to us. All of them we were able to express in our own ways. No ones blog was at all similar. The topics may have been, but the views were all slightly different along with the content.  Blogging was completely new to me. I went in with a positive attitude and for now I am leaving with a positive attitude as well. At first I struggled with the simple asp...
