Blogging

According to Michael Skube, blogging is "the loudest corner of the Internet, noisy with disputation, manifesto-like postings and an unbecoming hatred of enemies real and imagined." He states how blogging is now everywhere among us, and how they are happy to write for free. Some bloggers are very interested in political debate, as for others, like Markos Moulitsas Zuniga says, "We need to keep the media honest, but as an institution, it's important that they exist and do their job well." Bloggers can do whatever journalists can do, but with less restrictions. Skube believes that if there's anything bloggers want more then an audience, is knowing they are making a difference in politics. He said that important stories demand time and true facts, which is something that no regular blogger can do.

"The Blogging Revolution" and "Blogs: All The Noise That Fits" are in same in that they both believe that blogging has changed the way journalism is today in many ways. Although they both stand for something different in the blogging world, they both understand where the other is coming from in a way. They also know that blogging is here to stay, and its impossible to change that now.

I agree more with Andrew Sullivan. People should be able to write whatever they want, and it's good its free. I think its great that people could be able to write and sell their own book online through print-on-demand directly from their website. People should be able to write what they want without it getting edited. I like how blogging has that "personal touch" in which the person doesn't have to worry about upsetting someone else or offending someone. Blogging has formed a revolution on journalism.
