Power of professional bloggers

Some bloggers are becoming professional. Blogging is becoming their job. Bloggers share crucial information and professional knowledge with online users and show off their influence. They are becoming powerful bloggers. Nowadays, this phenomenon is a social trend. They consider blogging as one type of jobs. What do you think about this trend?

Internet, computer and social media for certain population

With the economic situation getting worse, there were more people losing their job and housing. The economic downtime is pushing more low-income people on to the streets. Some common causes that contribute to persons becoming homeless include lack of education and employable job skills. In this regard, will computer and Internet skill training help homeless people find a job, gain information and government services, and connect with others?  How can social media help them?

Blog creation

My blog URL is http://globalsocietyculture.blogspot.com/

I already followed you, so you can just follow me. Once everyone follows me, you can follow other classmates. You can see them on my blog.

On Tuesday, March 29, please bring your digital camera and camcorder if you have. Otherwise you can check them out from the library, TLC, or the Department of Media Studies. Depending on your plan for your blog creation, you will take some pictures and shoot a video. Although we already discuss about your plan, if you want to change your plan or have other good idea, you can change your plan. I will keep discussing with you about your blog creation. If you have any question, please let me know it.
