2×2 for Blog Writing
2 Connections:
1) I enjoyed reading this article because it is something that we can all relate to since we have been blogging for this class. Even though we have been more about posting our assignments on the blog rather than journaling or blogging, we have still been using it and have been exposed to the blogging interface.
2) I agree that usefulness and uniqueness are key elements in writing a blog post. While there are so many millions of people from all walks of life that will come in contact with your blog post, only the people that can relate to it or that find it interesting and/or different from everything else that they have ever read will take something from it and find it successful.
2 Questions:
1) Is it possible to follow the tips for bloggers on making your post “scannable” while still posting an educational post?
2) Do all of our blog posts have to fit in with the 20 types of blog posts? I know that is a lot and that nearly anything you write would show up under one of the 20 categories, but what if you went out on a limb and got extra creative? Would your post be considering unorthodox if it did not fit into the 20 types?
