"I Blog, Therefore I am a Blogger" (Hennan)

What Sullivan says is hard work. It is similar to the “Social Networking Wars” video because many times we are overloaded with information on what other bloggers comment, critique, add or suggest to our Posts. We don’t have the time to answer to all tiny questions. Some of these examples are journalists and professors who do their work online and whose jobs require them to work hard and to be attentive at people’s need. It would be nice if these journalists and professors get pay all the time for answering at each of the online news’ readers’ questions, as well as, the online students. Journalists will always have unsatisfied readers and professors will always have unsatisfied students. But there is simply no time, no pay and no energy to satisfy people’s needs. However, both professional workers do the most important stuff that their job requires them to do.

“Writing in digital spaces” (Heenan) is in fact better than writing outside the internet where most of my stuff would go to my professors, boss or loved ones. This is because I can have corrections, questions and clarifications from other bloggers. It will help me to expand my work in order to make it better. I think of blogging as a Creative Writing Class Discussion in the ENG 210 I took last semester. This is because we would discuss each other’s papers having the professor as the one who would correct students and sometimes give an insight to what students said on their comments. Also, she would also give an insight to the author of the short story that is being discussed. The only disadvantage bloggers have when they Post their work in order to get some feedback and discussions, the author does not know if the person is to be trusted or not in their comments. But before the blogger takes any step further, such as making corrections, improvisations, etc., it is the blogger’s job to identify who wrote comments on their post in order to know how much importance or seriousness he/she would give to the comment.
