"B" is for blog

A. What is the difference between a blog and a book?
Blogs difference from books basically because they are all online. The word blog comes from web log and it is used as a journal in which other people can comment on. The author of the article on blogs refer to books as tight and slow while blogs are fast and reckless. Books are also very picky about the copyright while blogs invite you to reply to the entry. Blogs also have links, which act like foot notes, which make you visit many sites. Books, on the other side “ask you to stay between their covers”.

B. How have blogs changes recently?
Blogs are constantly changing, they change with recent events such as sports, natural disasters and wars. There are blogs for politics, science, gossip, videos, pictures among others which change with peoples opinion. recently, blogs are made up of writings people find on line, and are mostly made up of things other people have already said.

C. Why might you read a blog?
Mainly, I would read blogs for diversity. I would use it to get to know different ideas from mine. Blogs can also be used to get advice or answers you might not know.

D. Is there reason to doubt the objectivity of a blog? Why? Why not?
It actually depends on what you're looking for. Blogs aren't a reliable source when it comes to facts but may give you diversity when it comes to opinions.

E. If you kept your own blog, what would you title it?
I would title my blog laura duARTe because it represents me and is clear at the same time.
