    I do not have another blog that I use for school or other reasons.

    I also do not follow any other blogs than the one I use for school.

    Blogging is an easier way, in my eyes, to communicate and work together.

    Blogger is similar to social websites because it is a way to communicate with others, and allow friends to comment on your ideas.

    No I do not have a blog other than the one today.
    No not other than today.
    You can communicate with your teacher out of class or in class none verbally.
    Because face book is less confusing and easier to do and I like it better.

    No this is my first blogger and I am using this and it might help me with my work and my day and stuff.
    No this is my first blog I have followed.
    I see it as it might be important for my work and that if I want to get a hold of you and if I have any questions to ask.
    I like Face Book so much better just saying I’ve never used blogger before and I have had face book for a long time and I like it I can use it to get a hold of my friends and look them up if I want to talk to them blogger is kind of hard.

    No, I do not have another blog.
    No, I do not follow anyone else.
    Blogging is a way to communicate with classmates, friends, and your teacher using the internet.
    Facebook has way more people on it and it is easier to interact with people. Twitter is kind of like blogger except the tweets you do are shorter.

    First off, no, I do not have a blog other than the one that we are using in class. I, honestly, have never thought of using a blog.
    Other than the class blog, I am following other blogs. I follow my friend, Haylee, on Blogger. We talk and post about random stuff.
    I do think that blog posting is an important aspect of communication today because we get to speak our opinion openly.
    Compared to other social networking sites, I’d say that Blogger and Twitter are at the top of my favorites list! :)

    I do have another blog, but it is not use. It’s a blog about the world and thinking from a new perspective. I do follow one other blog for honors English. I also find blogging to be important because it gives people a place to share their life to a public audience and share how they think or feel. Blogger compares to other social networking sites by letting you post pictures and giving you a chance to post on other blogs. It gives you a chance to interact with people from all over the country. Blogger compares to many of the top social networking sites in the world.

    I have a blog that I had to use for Honors English this summer but other than that I have never used a blog. My blog for Honors English was also on the blogger website and was also for school.
    The only other blog that I follow is the Honors English blog with Mrs.Dubb.
    I suppose that to some people blogging might be useful for places such as work and school. Other than that I don’t see very purpose for it.
    Honestly, I don’t think blogging is very much like Facebook, MySpace, or Twitter other the fact that they all involve communicating with other people.

    1. I do not have another blog.
    2. I don’t follow other blogs other than the one on Blogger.
    3. All I see of blogging is you can “rant” about things you don’t like and you can get out your anger if needed instead of yelling at people.
    4. Blogger compares with Facebook, Myspace, Twitter and other social networking sites by blogging, you just write endlessly it seems and for social networking sites you can comment and like on pictures and status’.

    I do not follow any blogs other than the class blog…yet.
    I see blogging as an important aspect of communication in today’s world because it lets friends and family stay in touch with one another. It also gives users opportunities to meet new people.
    Blogger compares to other social networking sites because it allows people to talk about what is going on in their lives.

    1. I do not have a blog other than the one I created for class.

    2. No I do not follow blogs other than my class log.

    3. I see blogging as an important aspect of communication in today’s world because it is a fast way of communicating with other people.

    4. Blogger compared with Facebook, MySpace, Twitter and other social networks is that with these other things you say or tell what you are doing just like what you do with these other social networks.

    No I have not followed any other blogs other then the class blog yet
    It helps people state their opinion on things and other people can see what you feel and can help you understand things a little bit better if you don’t already understand something also you get to learn and see the way other people think and feel and it gets you to see other sides of something then only what you think.
    It allows people to leave comments on things just like the other ones do. It also allows you to write what you want to write in a blog then you get to wait for a response from other people. It makes it easier to communicate with one another

    1. No I do not have another blog account outside of school.
    2. Other than the class blogs, I don’t follow any others yet.
    3. Yes, I think that blogging is an important part of today’s world, because it allows people to communicate easier and they are able to post their opinions.
    4. Blogger compares with Facebook, Myspace, Twitter, and other social networking sites, because other sites you can update status’, message people, post pictures, and other things. On blogger, you just have posts of what you want to write about and people comment.

    Questions 1-4.
    Do you have a blog other than the one you created for class? If so, what type of blog is it and what do you use it for?
    I do not have a blog other than the one in this class.
    Do you follow blogs other than the class blog? If so, what type of blogs do you follow?
    I do not fallow any other blogs.
    How do you see blogging as an important aspect of communication in today's world?
    I see blogs as an important aspect of communication in this world because blogs help people communicate when they don’t have any other way of communication.
    How does blogger compare with Face book, MySpace, Twitter and other social networking sites?
    Blogger compares with face book, MySpace and twitter and other social networking sites by the communication and how we are communicating with others and expressing feelings over the internet.

    To begin, no I do not have a second blog for use outside of school…however over the summer I became acclimated to Blogger by posting comments on a blog that was used for my Honors English class.
    Yes, I follow one other blog besides the class blog. The blog is used for B.H.S.’ Honors English 9 course.
    I see blogging as an important aspect of communication in today’s world because it is another way for people to stay connected with one another, no matter where they are or what they are doing.
    Blogger compares to Facebook, MySpace, Twitter, or other social networking web sites because it allows its users to post about what they’re doing or what they, think, believe, or hope.

    This is my first blog posting. The only blog I have is the one for class. I do not follow blogs other than the class blog. Blogging is an important aspect of communication in today’s world because it’s a good an easy way to talk to other people, and you can write about whatever you want and most likely if a person sees it on your blog, they’ll want to talk to you about it. So It’s a good way for people to talk to other people without anyone going out of their way. Facebook and myspace are the type of things that you can go on to be social, and talk to your friends for fun. You can also post things on blogging websites for fun, but blogging websites are for the people that like to talk about specific things, and events. So they’re kind of the same but they have their differences too.

    I do not have another blog besides this one that I made for this class.

    Besides the blog I’m commenting on now I have only commented on other blog. This blog was for my Honors English class. I had an over the summer project that involved blogging.

    I see blogging as an important aspect of communication in today’s world because first of all it allows us to communicate with more people easier than we would in real life which helps us to spread ideas.

    Blogger is like other social networking sites because you virtually get to do the same thing. Share about your life and ideas and do what most people like to do these days; complain.

    This is my first blog. I probably won’t ever use this blog again, only for school. I have never used a blog before other than for my Honors English class. I used it to post comments on topics about books.
    I follow the Toledo Blade, USA Today, and Stumbleupon other than my class blog.
    I do see how it is important because you can do assignments at home and connect with your teacher over the internet.
    Facebook and Twitter are more popular than blogs. They are easier and cooler.

    I also do not follow any other blogs; this will be my only one.
    I think blogging is important because it allows people from all over the world to express their feelings and allow others who have the same feelings to discuss a topic.
    I think blogging is much like the other social networking sites because anyone is able to read it. The only thing is that more people use Facebook and Twitter because it’s more set up for people to use, and people find them a lot easier.

    I have created a blog account before we made one in class today. I followed Ms. Dubb’s blog commenting on different scenarios that occur in the books that we read for Honors English.
    Blogging is an important aspect of communication in today’s world because it allows people to express their opinions without necessarily releasing their identity. It is also important because it can be a quick way to get news about almost anything.
    Social networking sites are similar to blogs because they allow people to connect with eachother.

    This is my first blog post. I do not have any other blogs besides the one for class. I follow the Honors English 9 blog because I have to use it for my English class. I see blogging as an important part of communication now because teachers and students can use this to ask questions and show homework assignments. I don’t have any other social networking sites so, yeah. I wouldn’t know how they compare.

    No, I do not have a blog other than the one I just created.
    No, I don’t follow blogs other than school.
    Blogging can be as an important aspect of communication in today's world because it is a way to interact with people and it will help people share what is needed.
    Blogger is like other social networking systems because you can share with friends, you can follow what people are bogging, and you can learn more about people.

    No I don't.

    No I don't.

    I don't feel like it's an important aspect.

    Blogger doesn't compare with social networking, because blogger is a hassle and it's really unpopulated and unuseful.

    No, the only blog I have is for this class. The blog is at Blogger.com and I use it for school and getting to know blogging much better, as if I was going to use it in my career out of high school.
    No, I do not.
    I see blogging as an important aspect on life because that’s how most people communicate nowadays. Most people use the blogging websites, Facebook, or Twitter to communicate because it’s a lot easier to talk to people instead of writing letters and waiting for them to reply soon enough.
    They are similar in some way because they are all networks that people communicate to and fro.

    I do not have a blogger besides the one I have for class. I do not follow any blogs as of right now besides the ones for class. Blogging is an important aspect of communication in today’s world because this is how we can do computer work and talk to class mates and talk to people that ask for help or ask other people for help. Blogger is just like twitter in my opinion you can’t see anyone else’s things unless you are following them and they can not see your stuff unless you are following them.

    What is the internet
    1. The web is a collection of electronic files in a spider web.
    2. The internet had been around for about 40 years.
    3. J.C.R first developed the internet.
    4. The internet is controlled by a group of people.
    5. The world wide web makes the rules for internet
    6. The internet has evolved by people making more and more websites.
    7. The original design of the Internet affected its development because nobody controls it and it can be positive or negative.
    8. I think that the internet is going to become a lot different in the future, because more and more people are going to use It and the people will end up changing the way the internet works.
    9. The internet affects my life because I pay more attention to it then I do school which in return messes up all my grades and affect my college career
