Reflection of My Top Three Posts

          Throughout the semester, I feel like I have grown in my writing and blogging abilities. When I first started blogging I had no idea what I was doing and realized I wasn't as good of a writer as I thought. In my first few blogs, I didn't use pictures, rambled and repeated myself, added information that was unnecessary, and put no links in my blog. Looking back on them, I see they weren't that good at all. I am most proud of Blog Post Four, Five, and Six. I think I gave a good point of view in blog post four and made it appeal to the eye. Everything in blog post five is about the topic I'm discussing and covered well. Blog Post Six is a revised version of Blog Post Two. I feel it is better written and done in a more professional blogger way.

          Blog Post Four is not my favorite blog post but is in my top three. I talked about whether or not college is enough and if it was any good. I argued that, "More and more students go in to a large amount of financial debt when they go to college." I showed how it could benefit you and how it couldn't by talking about financial aid, loans, and referenced from an article that basically said college can't teach you to think for yourself. I feel like I talked about reasons why college is a good idea and why it isn't. Because of my major, I have to go to college but not everyone has to.

          The ideas from an essay or an article in Share or Die was what we had to talk about in Blog Post Five. I had chosen to talk about worker's co-op's and how to start them. I went into great detail on when starting one, what would be appropriate, how to go about starting one, and what to ask yourself when you start one so it will be most successful. There is a graph in the post that shows how successful they are compared to other types of companies and an example of a workers co-op business that was mentioned in the book called Alvarado Street Bakery. I also gave several links to other websites that gives information on them to research it if someone wanted to start their own. It's a very popular type of business that continues to grow.

          Originally in Blog Post Two I talked about why I chose to go to college. In Blog Post Six I revised and made that original post better. I like Blog Post Six because of all of its improvements. At first I added no pictures, links, or even spacing of my paragraphs. When I revised it I added four pictures to better go with what I was saying. Instead of my paragraphs sounding so formal, unpleasing to read, and cluttered together, I reworded some of the things I said, separated my paragraphs, made my sentences flow. I like the way this post looks compared to its original form. This is what I should've done for Blog Post Two.
