TLT CoffeeRead: Blogs Keep Students Connected
Posted on September 3, 2008
Filed Under TLT Coffee Read
“Myspace and Facebook opened the gateway for a new generation of social networking over the internet. Now, online blogging sites like Wordpress, Livejournal and Blogger bring a whole new level of intimacy to the online world.
“At first I was against blogging,” said sophomore Bree Gant, a film production major. “I thought it was just another way for people to whine and get attention. But I realized as a writer, blogging is a good opportunity to not only journal, but get your opinion and writing out there and get some feedback from both experienced writers and interested readers.”"
