In my past I really didn’t know what blogging was and I didn’t hear the word often.  In fifth grade I only used Wikispaces and Yahoo websites. Now in 6th grade, I hear blogging every day when I go to school. It has become common like so many other internet words. Blogging has changed how I write and communicate online. I can see it as a great tool to be able to communicate with a large number of people at one time.  Using blogs, I can tell people about my life and the things that I love to do. In the future this will help me connect with other people who have the same interests that I do. When I read other people’s blog from around the world, I learn so many different things like their culture, schools, what kind of area they live, what they do and more. So far, I have written only a few comments to other people’s blogs so I am still learning.   For example I learned to put links to our class blog when we write a comment to others. My favorite part about our blog is looking at the people who comment. I haven’t made any friends from blogging yet, but I am communicating with a college student from Turkey, at Sabanci University. This is interesting to me and I hope I will learn more about his life in Turkey.
