Nine Posts Later..

So I was going to write about how, due to the birth and rise of the internet, the world is becoming more of a "survival of the fittest" place.  I started writing a couple of paragraphs and realized that while I believe this to be true, my arguments are fairly weak and I need to think it through a bit more.  Instead, I now feel like it'd be more appropriate for my final blog post to be an analysis/evaluation of the blogging experience I've gained in this assignment.

I had absolutely no idea what I was going to blog about for this assignment, but it turned out to be sort of a diary written for me and the public.  Regarding "me," I feel that this project inadvertently strengthened my views on particular subjects.  Knowing that anyone can read what I was writing, I wanted to be certain I agreed with everything word and phrase that I typed.  After all, it's my name that is attached to this.  In the beginning, this was the part that scared me about blogging, but I really don't think it was that bad in the end.  I rather enjoyed this aspect of blogging.  Regarding "the public," I learned to better decide what I felt was worthy of sharing with the world.  And what kind of things I want other people to get excited about.  Sometimes this assignment made me rethink my beliefs and forced me to ask myself "why" I feel the way I do, which was actually the reason I changed the topic of this post. 

However, once my thoughts are straightened out a bit, I'll be sure to write about the birth and rise of the massive, empowering, diverse and enriched communication facility known as...the internet!!
