There are many different forms of blogs with a different target audience. It is important to understand who you are directing your blog at otherwise it will be lost for no one to see. In this instant, my blogging posts will be critical and analytical rather than a dreary problem page where an agony aunt is awaiting.
Within Digital Culture i will attempt to explore and explain the good and the bad involved in the many mediums.When a new medium is born, a dark side to that medium is also born which has the capability to be detrimental to society as a whole such as Facebook or the constant hound of consumerism through advertisements which invade our everyday life. I feel that with blogging there is more room to scrutinize with certain world events where as with an news organization there will inevitably more restrictions on what you can and can't report.
Blogging as a whole can provide a independent and more free analysis of events and news around the world, as opposed to an organization such as the BBC or ITV who adhere to Association press. It gives you a much broader spectrum to write about as opposed too a biased news report about how we are winning the wars and depicts the civilians as joyous. This is incongruent as they are being killed and hounded by NATO bombs everyday along with the infrastructures of their country's being destroyed for years on end.
