So, my blogging experience is going well so far.
its been 5 days since i made my blog and myself and Lysh have become quite infamouse in the blogesphere because the guy who wrote the blog we reviewed and his loyal army disagree with and dislike our review. My confidence is slowly subsiding.
Thanks Bitches!
Korrina and Lysh’s thoughts on blogs (and bloggers). We think blogging would be enlightening for those who have no real social skills and/or friends. Recently we were given the piece of advice to “expand our internet social skills” before we can expect to survive the blogging world. We ourselves do not feel the need to do this as we have real friends and prefer to spend our time doing other things. Unfortunately the blogging world has now grown so huge that it’s unavoidable not to cover it in our English Writing class.
This is the first blogs assignment we have been given in english writing. We (korrina and lysh) have decided to review this blog : Email conversations can be fun…especially with scammers. (The url is http://www.wheelturninghamsterdead.com/) The style and tone of the author’s language could be called comical… we prefer to think that, after looking at a few different blogs, a lot of bloggers make a big deal over small events in order to insert humour into their everyday lives. The language used is informal and sometimes vulgar. It is the language of miserable, lonely people. Lysh believes that the author of the blog spoke about his situation in a satirical way and poked fun at the event in order to make it interesting. He f ailed. The bottom line was that he had recieved an email from somebody he didn’t know and replied just to take the piss out of whoever sent it. We do not find this interesting or enlightening. There was no moral or underlying message in the blog. It was the simple retelling of events with a few buzzwords thrown in.
