Blog Evaluation
I had a hard time finding a blog I wanted to write about- there were a lot of different options but I wanted one I could really analyze and evaluate! Eventually I came across one post on "Cruella-blog" the post was titled, "YouPorn and PornTube. Really." I was really interested in this blog because the porn industry (in my opinion) is a huge contributor to how woman are treated and thought about in society. After I read the blog I was torn; was it good or bad? The main problem I had with it was that the blogger did not reach any conclusion- she touched on a lot of good points but never seemed to carry them out or analyze them fully. There were definitly postive aspects about the post as well, it opened a space for dialoge on a topic that is often kept on the backburner and it looked at the legal aspects of internet porn as well as more general thoughts about it. Something that I learned doing this assignment was that the comments by others about the blog are a good way to get more information. I found that some of the problems I had with the blog were expressed by others in the comments. The author of the blog then responded to those comments which allowed me to better understand what the author wanted readers to take from her post. Overall, I found the assignment interesting and it got me a bit more comfortable with the blogging world!
