It is time now to discuss my blogging skills. Over the past few weeks I have made an effort to blog and comment on other's blogs at least once a week. At first, I was very nervous and slow in the blogging process, but I have learned to crank out meaningful blogs every week with a new idea. My forte has definitely been coming up with creative titles that draw in the reader. My first blog was interesting, but a bit wordy and boring. I learned that having an interesting title that hints at something provocative or popular, readers will be more likely to sit through the whole blog. Also, interesting pictures are always helpful to grab a reader's attention.
My later posts integrated more links and pictures, and I was able to relate them to the main purpose of each blog appropriately. However, I am beginning to decrease the amount of content each week, so I will do my best to beef up these blogs with information that people want to read about.
My favorite blog post is
Ohana Means Family. In this post, I have an interesting and creative title, along with a colorful and recognizable picture. These are elements that are needed to attract readers. I then go on to talk about a discussion we had in class, and I relate it to a news story that I heard about when I was in Hawaii last year. I think I did a good job of explaining the issue, and if it wasn't clear, I posted a link with more information. Finally, what I like most about this post, I relate the story even further to a household name movie "Lilo and Stitch."
Overall, blogging has been very educational and also very fun. I look forward to reading everyone's posts and I hope that I will continue to grow as a blogger.
