Working with Blogs

1) What is a blog?
A blog is basically a journal online, complete with HTML (hyperlinks, text, media and language).

2) Why do we use blogs?
We use blogs to post text, hyperlinks, video, pictures and other items of that type.Blogs can be used to  update your personal life or just your status. A good example of  blog is Facebook. On facebook, you can update your status, upload pictures or videos, and put hyperlinks to other sites (eg. YouTube or Twitter).

3) Did you find a blog a good option for communicating with teachers and peers?
Not really. I don't exactly see the point of a blog when you just see your teachers and peers every day. As for the teachers, we don't really HAVE to post every single piece of work that we have done, espiecally since we can just show the item to them at school the next day. As for the peers, blogs are mostly helpful. Every single person that I know has facebook, and most of them go on it for an hour or more every day. I know I do ;). Blogs are very useful to anti-social people or people that like telling people what they are doing every single second of the day. Haha. But no, seriously blogs I think are of more use to your peers than your teachers.
