Critical Blog Review

The use of blogs in the 21st century allows people to create their own news, they have their own freedom to the media. The function of a blog is to let people voice their opinion on a topic or current event. It is most likely that there is someone out there that will want to read our blog and be interested in your blog/ideas. This is very different then what the media used to be in the 20th century. The news/media was left to the professionals, writers and reporters. Now anybody can create their own media. A blog gives people the chance to promote their new business. Also the blog sends out information and function of the certian business.
Its a good way to promote, but also it also gives people the chance to give their reviews about the business. This could be a bad thing because if they had a bad experince they will not say anything good on the blog and everybody else will see it. Also a blog can be a good form of gossip. Someone can make a blog based on what is going on in the social life of a certian celebrity. They can blog about a cetian movie that came out recently and give it a review. This can be both good and bad because they give a bad review on the movie and then no one will go see it. Another thing people may blog about is the actual news that is going on in the world. Such as the horrible earthquake that happened in japan recently. People could make a blog reporting up to date information about what is going on over there and also they could possible even put together something that would help them...like a fundraiser. Blogging is a good way to socialize and talk with other people about events that interest you
Blogs can also be abused though too. People can take them too far sometimes. Whether it is spreading rumors or causing problem/drama. Bloggers could post some flase information about someone or something and cause a huge up raising. For example, lets say someone posted something saying that she saw a certain celeb with a different man, not being her husband. Once people see this it could spread like wild fire and give the person a bad reputation. Bloggers could take it too a new and unnecessary level.
