Blogging Homework

It was really difficult for me to find two blogs that i thought would be good to read. A lot that i found were only one day's entry and so they weren't long enough. Then i remembered about the Xanga website that all my friends used to do back in the middle school days, so i searched that and just picked some random blog profiles and started reading them. The Xanga blogs that i chose seem kind of stupid to me at first, but whatever..

The first one i read was by a girl named Lindsey, and i read a few of her blogs from Jan 3-11.

What she wrote was very personal and discusses her emotions and sometimes religion. She's just telling how she feels and whatever is on her mind. The writer talks about a boy that she wants in her life and different problems that she is having to face. Music, she says, is something that she is really interested in and wants to pursue one day. She even includes some lyrics/poetry that she has worked on that really seems to let her get her feelings out of her.

This user's profile has two pictures, which are both of herself, and has the links to her friend's profiles.

I think this is a good type of blog, but I am not the type to just put my emotions out there for everyone to see, so mine probably will not be this personal.

The second blog that i chose was by someone named Kelly. This persons blogs went from Dec 21-Jan 11. What this writer wrote was interesting...she apparently is "coming out" in her blogs and talks about this girl who she has a crush on. I just don't understand how people can be so open about things like this not knowing who is going to read it...but that's her i guess...
She continues to just discuss how she feels about different things and also is a little emotional.

Again, a little more personal than i could be. This user also includes quite a few pictures and these are a little wierd to me...sorry for saying this. Her user name includes the numbers 122192, so assuming that is her birthdate, she is only 16. She also includes featured questions that link to answers that she has posted and where others can answer how they feel about each subject.

I've never done this before and i'm not sure if i'm really that into it yet, but I'm going to try!
