HW 2 Response to David Klein and Dan Bursteins Blog: How the Newest Media Revolution is Changing Politics, Business, and Culture

Response to David Klein and Dan Bursteins Blog: How the Newest Media Revolution is Changing Politics, Business, and Culture:

Out of the 12 questions in blog! that I can relate to is question Three. Question three states "Blogging in addition to being a huge phenomenon in it's own right, is the key metaphor for interactivity, community-building and genuine conversation." (pg.xxi) Before going to school, I joined the facebook network. Facebook is basically joining a network and posting blogs and messages about yourself for others to see. Joining this group helped me. I met so many new people that were also coming to Keene. Through facebook I was able to build communities with other freshman. If I did not join facebook I would not know as many people as I do now. I was involved in so many conversations with other students because of facebook. I was also able to join a class of 2011 group which led me to meet/chat with even more students my age. Using facebook as a blog helped and prepared me before I went off to school.
