Blogging is something that I might consider doing outside of this class. I think it is a good thing when you need advice. When I have questions or need advice about anything I type it into google and read other people's blog posts about the topic and most of the time it is extremely useful! Blogging in the workplace however is a completely different situation. I think it is very improper and think that you should get information from more reliable sources.
At first, the whole blogging thing was very confusing and I was not very fond of it. But now since I have been doing it a lot more, I am starting to enjoy it! It is also amusing to read other people's blogs and writing styles.
I only half agree with this post. I too was not fond of blogging- until towards the end of this assignment. I still wouldn't do it just because; I would need a good reason for it. I agree that SOME work related blogs are improper or unprofessional, possibly even boarder- line illegal in some cases.
ReplyDeleteBut I disagree that blogs for the workplace are unreliable. SOME workplace blogs can be very helpful and reliable. I would rather read about the information I seek from an up to date, credible source that comes from the experience of a person in the field. For example, H&R Block has a blog that all H&R Block employees can post to. There is a variety of information posted to that blog that comes from very reliable sources.
