Presentation given on October 3

The presentation that Adela and Anderlynn gave was very informative. They stated some very interesting facts. It is very interesting how people can blog/video blog about their plain and simple lives and viewers find it so interesting. I imagine this is also how reality tv shows work. It is also very interesting how people have made so much money by blogging. Take the blogspot Rocketboom for example the presentation stated that the show is now worth over $4 million dollars, and it all started with an attractive woman who grabbed the attention of the viewers, with her looks. Not only do you have ordinary teens and adults blogging about themselves and their lives, you also have senators and stars blogging about their lives as well, and viewers find each equally intriguing, regardless of whether the person is famous or not. That is what I find to be the most interesting. It seems that blogging is bringing all varieties of people together, and maybe thats not such a bad thing.

Was this the entry that Suzanne sort of deleted:)?

I just finished watching a whole "show" of people on YouTube imitating foreign accents and issuing other vloggers "challenges." Amusing, at least:) (I enjoyed one wine-swilling guy who did Scottish slang in particular.)

This is really becoming a new community, I agree with you - blogging is bringing people together.
