Final blog

A blog is basically a digital format of a diary, generally the concept is the same as diary entries of which content is added on a regular basis. Reflection of my blog consist of several observations of advantage, mainly content discussed in lectures being transcribed into blog so as to reflect later on, also the use of fun and interesting links to basically anywhere on the net. Analysis of my blog consists mainly of content spoken within lectures, me trying to fathom some kind of comprehension and writing it within my blog, my 3 chosen web blogs consist of Web 2.0, carving up the world and building a web page. The whole concept associating with blogs is networking, it is basically a free API of which anyone can customize with there own content, from the blog site itself and also through the use of sourcing data from other sites such as flickr. As far as audience is concerned, never really gave that much thought, as the blog initially was conceived in my eyes as obviously an assessment item, but also a tool of reflection towards content of lectures, basis of which can be looked upon with final examination, however, initially when conceiving blog and linking it to twitter, adding content weekly has seen my following on twitter increase, reason being content is added to my updates on twitter, of which generates interest from fellow peers, hence they add me. This clearly is explanatory to the concept of social media, the use of web 2.0 API, linking each other, allowing content to be amplified in a manner useful with a search engine or hyperlinks approach, to which debilitates ones interests, therefore allowing a some what useful, educational, commercial and of course social or the aspect of fun, being the result of such efficient tools such as a blog.

Of course once a interest of topic is found, there is the concept of RSS feed, of which captures the blogs url and sources it in a destination to which you set the feed, igoogle was my choosing.
