The wide world of blogging

Hey there! 

So I was sitting in my journalism class today, learning how to write for the big wide Web and the importance of learning how to use internet mediums, when it hit me- I've never blogged. In fact, I've never even been to a blogging site unless it was to look up a tip for a research paper or column. Twitter seems pretty pointless and Facebook is so much easier, but I do need to learn to expand! 

This kind of feels like talking to myself... I feel that if I actually had a reason to blog then maybe people would actually read it. 

I am an opinion columnist for our campus paper, the Iowa State Daily, which last year was actually considered the No. 1 university paper by the Society of Professional Journalists. This year, while we're definitely not up to that standard, I decided I should put up conversation topics for you guys to read the columns and give feedback. We can also do video chats for debates, as that sounds pretty awesome and I would like to try that.

Later, Sita

  1. I had never blogged before I took a rhetoric class last summer. I had to create a blog for an assignment. It is kind of weird at first but fun.
