(Ex.Credit Blog) ARE BLOGS AND EFFECTIVE FORM OF COMMUNICATION?

This is for my Mass Communication and Society Class :). I think that blogs are a great form of communication. For example, my cousin who is living in Texas can read what I write on my blog, and see pictures of me when I don't see her very often. I think blogging helps to keep people connected with one another. Especially those who wouldn't call each other on the phone. It helps people see what others are up to.
I also thing that blogging is great for people who like to keep scrapbooks/journals. I am one of those people. I have six journals from the past 4 years, except all of them are hand written. I feel that blogging makes it easier because people can type quicker than handwriting something. It is also awesome that you can add pictures to what you write, and it is also quick. I don't have pictures in my journal, and if I added them it would make it bulky and would take more time to get them printed out and glued into the journal. It's great that you can print out everything you have written over the past year.
I also think that its a great way to get your voice heard. Since you post it on the web it is visible for everyone to see. If they wanted to read something you wrote they could simply go to you page and read what you have written. (That's one good thing about journals -More confidential.) But it is great to be able to speak your opinions and I feel that it is a great way to communicate to your friends, family, and anyone who is interested in the topics you write about. I definitely think that its a great and effective for of communication :) .
