Reflective Blog Post

I feel that I have not utilized my blog to its fullest potential. Looking back, I have very few blog posts, and I have also not extensively participated in discussions on other people's blogs. In my own blogs, I feel like I could have gone more in depth on many of them, which could have helped with planning my papers. Blogging itself is a different written medium from what I am used to. Compared to in-class discussions, blogs have to be more organized with an actual point behind them. In-class, you can kind of just say whatever comes to mind. The most important thing in in-class discussions is that you are talking and thinking. It doesn't matter if you idea isn't fully thought through. Though blogging is kind of the same, there still needs to have an ultimate opinion within. However, unlike formal writing, I feel that you are still allowed to  extrapolate into many different directions while blogging without having to have a concrete idea of where you end up. It's almost like thinking out loud on the internet. However, I don't really see myself continuing to blog in the future.
