Blogging is definitely an activity I seldom enjoyed. Although it is a brand new experience, I was not thrilled at all to blog. Perhaps due to my workload, school work excluded, I barely found sufficient time to blog, especially with limitation for me to connect to the web constantly. Thus, I needed to admit that I did not contribute significantly to the blog due to the lack of experience and time. Furthermore, several late submissions indeed made me feel guiltier.
Nevertheless, it was still a great learning experience. I had learnt to elaborate viewpoints openly and became more cautious about the word used and interpreted. Blogging can be a useful way to present a perspective, an idea or opinions. Many blogs function as personal online diaries too. Indeed, there are numerous cases that bloggers were found to use inappropriate words or expressing discriminating viewpoints and some were even charged on court. Thus, it is still important that one should remember the openness of blog. Relating to my personal experience, a close friend of mine found an argumentative entry on her buddy’s blog. She was devastated at how the best friend had criticized her openly. It broke her heart instantly and I was definitely saddened by this circumstance. This is an ideal example of blog that hurts. Thus, bloggers need to write sensibly too, with great understanding on people related to the blog. Blogging, to a certain extent, seems comparable to literature.
It also seems suitable to share some of my feedbacks on this blogging experience. I feel that it would be a more interesting experience if there is a major theme behind all the topics we had blogged on, such as sports, food or a country. Overall, adoption of the topics from current trend still sounds appealing. In short, this blogging experience is considered memoriable and meaningful, but most probably I will never blog again.
