Blogging?

Okay, so I am part of the generation that is said to be technologically savvy, yet not once have I thought of blogging. MySpace. Facebook. Just like any other teenager today I could tell you how to use those upside down, backwards, and probably in Spanish. I spent a whole summer learning how to create MySpace codes from scratch, but within the first five minutes of logging onto the Twitter website I had decided that it wasn't something I was interested in. Even as a middle school student I thought that Live Journals were less than admirable, and I was positive that Blogging was somthing that had no place on my short list of hobbies. So when my college english teacher told us that she wanted us to not only follow her blog, but to create one of our own I was kind of shocked. One that a non-teenager knew what a blog was, and how to use one. Two that she did it her self. And three that she was asking us to blog as well. Im interested to see where this takes me, and what I (we, rather, as a class) will learn from this experience. So out of curiosity im releasing my current view of blogging, to see where this is going. After all, open minds lead to a better understanding, and having a better understanding leads to greater knowledge. :)
