Webpages vs Blogs
Before reading and listening to the information that was presented in my CEP 810 class, Teaching Understanding with Technology, I had no idea about Blogs. The immediate difference that I noticed was that it is easy to post anything to a Blog and change things on it. Blogs are specific where as webpages are usually broad and not usually updated frequently. Blogs deal more with present news and webpages cover a general topic and present information based on that one subject. Blogs are the views of one person on a subject and can be followed by a group and are interactive, webpages are not interactive. This link is especially informative Blogs in Plain English created by Lee and Sachi LeFever of the Common Craft Show, of what Blogs are used for everyday.

The video on blogs helps you to realize that anyone can publish information for the general public by using the Internet, which it different from official article, magazine, newspaper and book publishing where you went through a publishing company before the general public could read the information. This freedom can be both good and bad, because you have access to a lot more information but the credibility of the information has not been proven. You need to decide for yourself!
