other blogs

I thought it was nice to see the other blogs and I was surprised by how interested I was in the blogs actually, I have never posted a blog or anything of the sort before, and that includes facebook. Even though both blogs were very different I liked how each website was set up because I felt it helped explain what type of blog each site is.

I would say that Shanks blog is more academic based and has some connection to what we are doing now in the fact that it is more academic inquiry blog. Shanks process of finding academic inquiry was very similar to what we have been talking about and i think reading some one else's process helped me with figuring out my own process of inquiry. Also the back groud of the blog looked very professional and you got the feeling that the blog was more serious and academic based.

Though the Dooce blog was very opposite of Shanks blog more in the fact that it was just some one writing about there happy life. It was still helpful though because seeing a different type of blog because it could help me write mine and possibly make them more enjoyable to read. Again here i felt like the back ground set the mood for the blog, the white back ground was more uplifting and lighter.
