Mr. Wilkoff's Discovery 7 Blog

Monday, January 30, 2006

The technology of blogs gives us the oportunity to be truly anonymous in our writing. We are able to post ideas whenever we want, and no one will know their author. This is a powerful way of saying things that can be scary to say when everyone knows who you are. It also can let us feel the freedom of experimentation without being thought of as strange. This medium allows us to comment anonymously and give realistic feedback that can change our writing in amazing ways. All we have to do in order to harness this power is to set up an account on Blogger.com and type in our first posts. I'll show you how first, and then you will do it on your own. In order to get this anonymous ball rolling, at home you will type up your piece of writing in a word processor (like Word) and then copy it into the posting window. Once you post, the whole world will be able to know the wonder that is your writing.
