POST: EDUC 4151-Your first blog entry

Write an initial entry in your blog that answers these questions:

                          1. What goal would you like to meet with this blog?

I currently read the The Man Repeller fashion site. Leandra Medina and her team have a refreshing point of view of what fashion means to them. They are dressing for themselves and not for the opposite sex. Which can have an influence on the way people sometimes choose to dress. But if in fact they may want to dress a certain way that might entice the opposite sex it’s on their own terms. The choice of what is chosen to wear is self-empowerment and self-expression.

2.     How do you feel about your abilities as a blogger? Do you have any concerns?

I find myself using Twitter more than looking up blogs, as the blogs are available in one area and the bloggers link in the blog post to their Twitter. It is used for convenience factor instead of looking up each individual blog site I am interested in Twitter allows me to see the latest blog post as they Tweet about it.

The newness of blogging has made me to treat the posts as a narrative of my blogging journey. I would like to enjoy posting but right now my posts are influenced by the online course I am taking.

3.     Do you currently read any blogs? Why or why not?

I think eventually it would be nice to post more freely and would like to add humour and post insightful links to the blog.
