What are your thoughts on blogging? After completing these the past few days, do you think having a weekly blog to record thoughts about current events, technology, etc would be something we should incorporate into this class? Why or why not? Explain.

Blogging is a good idea. When people blog, others can read that blog and get a short summary of the article, giving all its main key points.

I think blogging is good because you get up to date on current events and you get to see other people thoughts and opinions. I think having a blog on current events should be something we incorporate in this class because it keeps you updated on events and new things and so we can see different opinions that may change our opinions or see things in a different way.

Blogging was a good idea and enjoyable. I do not think the blog should be incorporated into the class. If it would be the class would answer correctly and fully for the first week or two. But after that most student would probably give short answers to get to their work quicker. This resulting in less interaction than before. The class also doesn't really read the blog, except when they first post their thoughts and even then for only a second.

I think that it is fun to look at different websites and blog about them. But I also think that blogging takes a long time and takes away time from other things. I think that we should incorporate a blog into this class, but I don't think that it should be weekly, I think it would be better if it was a monthly blog. I think it should be monthly instead of weekly, because a lot of things happen in a month, but in a week there might not be a lot of events to choose from.

I really enjoyed doing this. I got to learn some new things and got to see other peoples input. I think weekly blogs would be a good idea but only if the articles we are reading or the things we are blogging have to do with technology and the internet, since this is Web Design. It could give people ideas for when they are working on things for this class.

I think blogging can be good for some people, but not the best for others. In my opinion, blogs are like diaries or review websites. Some people enjoy keeping blogs and being able to give other people information on their chosen topic, or item. I don’t think I’d be able to keep a blog and post every single day because that is a lot to keep up with. I also don’t think we should keep a blog going in Web Design because some people could focus too much on what they’re posting on their blog, than worrying about what they should be doing. Blogging every once in a while isn’t bad, but I think it’d get old if you were to do it every day. Blogging could be good, depending on the topic.

I agree with Alexis and Faisal; I would recommend only writing a blog once and a while and make sure that doing so does not hinder any kind of time we're allowed to use when designing our web projects.
This might just seem like busy-work at times, but now that we're in the middle of the "information age", blogging (as well as the entirety of the internet) is becoming increasingly more important. Having blogging skills could be very useful in the future.

Blogging is a good idea for this class, its nice to hear other people opinion and whats their thought on current event. I also agree that the class should blog once and a while. It could benefits us in the future but to much blogging can become a distraction for some of us.

I think blogging is good, it gets your thoughts out there for others to compare and contrast their thoughts to yours. It is interesting reading others peoples thought on different articles as well. I wouldn't mind if we had to blog more in this class.

I really enjoyed blogging. I played some new games, learned some cool new facts, and left this with a positive experience. I think people should do this more often in their free time, they would be surprised how much fun they'd have. I know im gonna be doing this more often!
