Reflection of Blogging

ROMULUS, Mich. - Now that my week of blogging is over, this gives me the chance to reflect on my experience.

The hardest part was finding things that were worthy of a story. Even though it's suppose to be dedicated to nightlife and promoting clubs and other venues, I wanted to talk about issues. The new smoking ban is something important that people need to know about, so I found it necessary to include a more formal story.

The easiest part was including the pictures for the story. Every picture that I used is either something that I'm in, I took or got permission from the owner. No copyright violations where broken.

If I had to do anything different, I probably would have picked a completely different topic, or choose something that didn't require me having to interview people. I felt rushed and too busy, but the pressure of the deadlines motivated me.

I would also give myself more time and actually put time into thinking about what I would blog about in order to keep my viewers/subscribers interested.

This assignment reminds me of a book that a journalism professor recommended me to read. "Writing to Learn" is a book about writing, and obtaining knowledge during your research. I learned something new with each blog post, rather it was reading all the minuet details of the new smoking ban, or experiencing Fountain Walk on a Tuesday night.
