Entry #1 The Good and Bad of Blogs

The first blog I read was "Uber Dresses up Dodge Chargers as Star Wars Stormtroopers, Marches on Manhattan" from car and driver.com. This blog talks about Uber, the ridesharing company, dressing up Dodge Chargers as Stormtroopers, and giving free rides to people of New York to celebrate the release of the new Star Wars movie merchandise. Some reasons why this blog was so interesting to me are because the blog was short, it had pictures of the cars dressed up as Stormtroopers, and how I just like the cars in general.

The second blog I read had to do about being healthy. It was called "Beautiful and Light Fruit Salad" on a blog website called The Picky Eater.  It is a blog all about how to eat healthy even if you are a person who doesn't like a lot of healthy food.  I really didn't like this blog as much.  It was overly complicated and had way too many pictures.  There would be one or two sentences then another picture.  It was too broken up and had too many complex steps for making the healthy food.  Something like a fruit salad seems like it would be simple.  For someone who is picky already, it is not likely they are going to want to follow a bunch of steps to making something they don't really want to eat to begin with.  It comes off choppy and long, like doing research instead of just casually reading a blog.  On top of that, I don't really care for healthy eating.  So I can say from personal experience that other people like me are probably going to get frustrated and not even finish reading this blog.  So in that way I think it failed to meet its purpose.

On the third blog I read is called "The Daily Dog Blog." I chose it because I love dogs, they tend to bring a smile to my face at any moment of any day. It had a positives and negatives. The positives were that anyone could post at any time, and give their input on their dogs. It was good because you could get variety of opinions on all kinds of pet experiences. The problem  with this would be that you would never know if they are experts or not, or if they are just giving their point of view.
Serious girl.
