Meta-Blog 2
Looking over this quarter in blog posts, I find that there is one thing my best posts have in common, something concrete that I based them off of. This could be a quote, a websight, or an event in my life. It seems that the bigger the connection I have to the topic of my blog, the better I can write and the more comfortable I am while actually writing the post. Something else I have noticed is that my two most recent posts were based off of opinions I hold that I would not commonly be willing to commit to publishing. However, my extensive use of the blog system over the last semester has made me more comfortable with publishing my opinions even though I understand that not everybody will agree with the things I say. I feel like being able to publish more one-sided posts as apposed to posts that simply bring up a question and support both sides is an improvement. I am actually starting to like the blog medium, because I am realizing how often I see something in everyday life that I hold an opinion about that I would like to share. All in all, I am definitely becoming more comfortable with the concept of blogging frequently. Quite honestly, I hadn't really seen myself as likely to use a blog, but I am finding out that the freedom of blogging can be very intriguing.
