1. A blog has many features. For example, According to Meg Hourihan's article What We're Doing When We Blog a blog has the posts collection, links, and the time stamp. The posts collection is a neat feature because the newest posts are always at the top of the page, which means we don't have to scroll through and find what has been changed or added. The author of the blog can also post links. The links can help reference where the information is coming from. Lastly, the time stamp allows others looking at the blog posts to see how recent that post is, and it can help them figure out an update pattern.
2.Before September 11th blogs were primarily personal dairies. But now, blogs have become very popular and used for media purposes.
3. I feel like keeping a blog in this class is easier than turning in a whole bunch of papers. I also think it is a great way to express yourself because you can have backgrounds and what not. The only disadvantages I see is that when you post something it is very public, and some people might not like that.
4. Blogging is kind of like "self publishing", or a free write. There are no limitations and no rules, just write what ever you would like :)
