Blogs

After my tutorial today, I was instructed to look at blogs from other journalism students not only in the UK but from all around the world. I started searching for blogs and the first one I came across was an Americab post about how journalists need to be able to work with new media in order to keep up with a technologically advancing world. I thought that this was particularly apt because there I was searching for blogs from journalism students, only to find a post about how journalism students need to be able to do things such as blog!

Here is the link to the post, and my comment:

After looking at that blog I started searching for other journalism sudents' views on new media and came across a blog post entitled "To Tweet or Not To Tweet" posted December 2010 by an American journalism student.

Here is the link to the post and my comment:

I think that reading the blogs of other journalism students has been beneficial because it has allowed me to evaluate which posts receive a large number of comments, and which ones are left relatively unread!
