What is blogging to you?

What is blogging or a blogger to you? There are so many Blog nowadays with these blogs come all types of topics. What kind of blogger are you Education, Citizen Journalist,Hobbie, enviromental,family,business blogger or main stream news. Some of us do one type while others enjoy a mix of many topic across many blogs they own or networks they post to. For me I love teaching,citizen Journalism,product reviews,sports and more. How do you know what type of blogger you are?

This is not that hard you to find out. It usally just happens to most people. There are other ways to find out. First do you like to write or shoot video? Second are you in a position to help others learn? Do you like to get stories that you see on the streets. Lots of Comapnies that do not blog need to watch there steps. for instance Path Mark supper markets had rotten meats because of open packaging. I Shot video and showed the manager. Later head quarters called me back I missed the call. I tried to call them back with no luck so I will post that video here youtube and on Helloignorants and Streets Journalism

The point is that companies have to do the right things these days with some many cameras watching. The best thing for these companies to do would be there own blog to control what happens by allowing others to post comments. Then they can do the right thing by following up. So look around you will find things to blog about or I should say they will find you.

BlogWorld Expo 2008: big success lots of great speakers

What's going on people?!

We are on fire after the 2008 edition of BlogWorld & New Media Expo, where we learned a lot more about blogging and Social Media.
So some of you might be saying: "What is a Blog? or "What is blogging?". That's good!

A blog can be only a diary, an online journal or even a place to advertise and marketing your products, services and ideas. A blog is dynamic, changes all the time and can be operated easily for your owner. A blog allows you to be a publisher and gives anyone the power to edit yourself. Everybody can own a blog, but is the passion, the energy and the discipline that makes you a blogger.

Bloggers School's trip to Las Vegas was the confirmation we are in the right track following through the Blogsphere. We took a lot of classes and heard to a lot of speakers, and for sure this experience made us experts.

We are learning all the time how to blog and we want to teach that as well. Here is the plan. We will be sending out emails to all those we met at BlogWorld Expo inviting them to our show. As soon they confirm, we will be showcasing them here, in our blog a week before they come on.

Below are some picture taken by Dave Cynkin during that three days in Las Vegas. The first picture is from Gary Vaynerchuck, speaker at the closing keynote, on the first day, September 19th. At the second image you can see Coach Deb (on the right), who taught a class about Tribal Seduction. After, Mike Shinoda, blogger and member of the band Linkin Park; he and Tim Ferris (author from The Four Hour Work Week) were the speakers on the opening keynote on the last day. The last picture is from Guy Kawasaki, speaker during the Luncheon on the first day of BlogWorld & New Media Expo 2008.

What is a blog

Definition of a blog
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jump to: navigation, search
For other uses, see Blog (disambiguation).
"Blogger" redirects here. For the blog publishing system purchased by Google, see Blogger (service).
A blog (a portmanteau of web log) is a website where entries are commonly displayed in reverse chronological order. "Blog" can also be used as a verb, meaning to maintain or add content to a blog.

Many blogs provide commentary or news on a particular subject; others function as more personal online diaries. A typical blog combines text, images, and links to other blogs, web pages, and other media related to its topic. The ability for readers to leave comments in an interactive format is an important part of many blogs. Most blogs are primarily textual, although some focus on art (artlog), photographs (photoblog), sketchblog, videos (vlog), music (MP3 blog), audio (podcasting) are part of a wider network of social media. Micro-blogging is another type of blogging which consists of blogs with very short posts.
