The first try at Blogging

     The use of blogs in today’s media world of communication has become a very influential means of communication. Blogs today can reach many people. They influence opinion and can serve as a way to reach a very specific audience. The blogger can create and frame a message they want to communicate.

   Putting my first ever blog together is a very new task to me. As an avid reader of news being able to maybe have followers or put a message out is a daunting thought. Blogs can be overwhelming, they can also be confusing. There are many different types of bloggers out there. Some are more successful than others. To be clear the blogger needs to be easy to read and navigate.

    A good blog is like a well laid out magazine or newspaper. The colors need to work with the type they also need to be consistent throughout. The proper use of colors will make the reader comfortable. The goal in colors would be to not distract or over power the message. The Font is also important here as I start to blog on a theme or message.

   The content of my blog is in the field I like working in, Military Media. By combining well produced content that is ethical and informative, combined with a good design, I look forward to learning as I go and seeing the feedback on creating a professional blog...

Here you also see some older posts as I started the blogging assignment to learn a layout and design... Thanks for taking part!
