A Story of a Boy and His Blog

Investigate Reflection
I can share ideas that will help as many people as I can, and not limit myself to a small audience, since many people may be able to benefit from my ideas. To also help post these in a responsible and safe manner, I can read over and monitor any idea that I want to post online. An example of this would be taking recommendations from my viewers on what to cover.
I will  take the blogging knowledge that I have acquired from this unit to help build a blog that is individual to me. For example, I can take the things that we learned about Bloggers layout tab to customize the look of my blog. I will also make sure that I moderate and keep my blog a good representation of both me as an individual and our school.
The class criteria that is most important to me is that the blog is organized, as the entire point of a blog is to post information online, so if no one can read it due to being disorganized, that blog is wasted. I will try to respond to any concerns about the organization of the blog as organization is important to me and I know that no one can stand a messy website.
In order to make sure I fulfill the five class criteria which I found from looking at other blogs, I will do a few tests. To accomplish the attractiveness, I will look at other blogs and see what make them attractive and see if my blog includes any of those features. To make sure that my blog has a clear theme,  I will poll random people to see if they can get an idea of what the blog is about. In order to make sure the blog is organized, I will do a parallel of the test for attractiveness but focusing on the organization. To monitor the ease of access, I will get test subjects to try and complete a “race” through the site. Finally, to monitor the creativeness, I will check other blogs with my topic to see if mine looks unique.
