advantages

there are several advantages to writing a blog that can not be found in any other format of writing. the most obvious is that is easily accessible to anyone anywhere, whether you know them or not.  Along with being able to read what you have written, readers can also add their own input to the blog and it becomes a conversation instead of a single sided article.  Comments can also add to what is being said along with being able to back up the point that is being made.  Students of Salt Lake Community College can easily reach this blog and read about some of the school's issues, the issue in the case of this blog being the location of it's portable classrooms.  Ideas and issues are easily spread and shared from students to campuses faster than they would if they were using any other medium.  Students of other schools could also potentially find this information and possibly be able to relate to whatever the issue might be and be able to use it as a reference for similar issues at their own schools, helping them to be able to back up their own points that they are trying to make and making it clearer that the issue is actually problem because there is evidence of there being a similar issue in other schools.  Anyone can find the information as easily as they can share it.  Blogging isn't limited to those who have gone into English and allows everyone to be able to share their ideas and thoughts easily.
