The cartoon above depicts what I have learnt through this assignment. Throughout the period of updating posts into this blog, I realised that a blogger has to be passionate about the topic he / she is writing about, and self-disciplined enough to keep coming back to write more. A blogger has to put in a lot of effort to find ineteresting posts to write about, as well as know how to keep it interesting and different from other blogs.
Blogs have a different style of writing from traditional publishings. It is not newspaper report styled, as our opinions can be shown in our blog entries. It is also unlike websites, due to the fact that it can be updated as and when the blogger wants to.
To create this weblog, I had to take into consideration, the design factors. The background colours had to be co-ordinated with the blog layout as well as the font colours. The font had to be easily visible to facilitate reading and understanding. A blog with all words and no pictures or videos would be really boring. At the same time excessive graphics make it too confusing. The choice of graphics is important as the source proves the reliabilty of the pictures or videos.
I believe I have a better understanding of design and publishing in online media now.
