Hw 2: Bursteins 12 Key Ideas

Dan Burstein and David Kline write about 12 key ideas in Blog! How the newest media revolution is changing politics,buisness and culture. Bursteins sixth key idea is "Blogging is going global". Basically saying that it is not just a select few amount of people that are using blogging. I can relate to this because when I think of blogging I think of text messages. Everyone uses it, adults,teenagers and children all know how and often use text messaging whether to just ask a quick question or tell someone a story without having to actually communitcate. A lot of people write blogs while they have some spare time at work or just hanging out at home as a way of communicating and that is what texting is to me because I have to be constantly talking to people and having some sort of conversation. In blogging people can comment back and they can have a casual conversation over the computer as many people also do with cell phones.
