Week 4 - My knowledge on Blogs


It is true that I didn’t know what a blog is until now. After learning about blogs in the class it was essential that I maintain a blog for an assessment in the module Business Web Innovation. We had to reflect on our knowledge and experience. In order to gain a better understanding about blogs, I did some background research in the internet.

It appears that blogs are similar to a personal diary except it is maintained online as personal Internet journals.  It allows the blogger to write his or her observations or experiences or keep a record of events on a regular basis which he/her can update on their own spare time. While some may use a blog for their own personnel use others will use it for a specific purpose for example to give tutorials, to give research information, to promote business and so on.

However the down side to a blog is, that it has become the centre of debate. This is because of the freedom that allows someone to write anything they want, leaves blogs vulnerable as complains on others become more common. However if you do not be careful about following the necessary ethics in place you could be subject to disciplinary action by someone for example your workplace.

  1. It sounds like you are enjoying the module. 5 substantial posts been made. Efforts been made to link in video clips and hyperlinks.
    Reflect on all aspects of the module including key topic areas, lectures, labs and e-activities and provide critical reflection.
    Show more reference to further research undertaken and include links to useful sites.
    Where appropriate provide examples of organisations using social media.
    Post one entry at least a week (so that you end up with around 12-18 posts).
