Notes: Blog Activity

Connections

Brosch chose to send her message through a personal story with lots of pictures to keep the simple, casual reader focused.

Bieberdorf used a more straightforward, factual method of presenting his idea/message to the reader.

Rebcca chose to talk to the reader on a more personal level, using CAPS LOCK and other various methods of personalizing her post.

All 3 of these blogs had a single message to send to their viewers. However, each author chose a unique way of getting the message across.

Girls Gone Child

She seems to enjoy to use CAPS LOCK quite a bit to drive a point home, or to emphasize parts of the writing so that the reader can picture how she would have vocally said it.

Along with facts, Rebecca likes to give her view/opinion a lot. That makes for a great discussion in the comments so that people can chat about conflicting opinions.

Rebecca Wolf likes to hammer down an idea. Meaning she will repeat certain phrases over and over in order to make it stick to the reader.

Hyperbole and a Half

He use his blog as a medium to tell a story, rather than to write about a news article or give his opinion.

I like the use of the metaphor using the the dinosaur costume to represent the child's inner 'monster' coming out. Whenever he had the costume on, he felt un-tamable, and powerful as ever.

Right off the bat it's clear that this author really enjoys using pictures to present his ideas.

Mindless Productivity

Bieberdorf brought up many societal standards and used them to strengthen his main argument against them, which was great.

The author likes to throw in some curve balls/surprises here-and-there to mix things up a little bit.

The first thing I noticed was that this author tells it like it is. He doesn't beat around the bush to protect feelings, he simply says it (this can be a bad thing if he does it all the time).
