The importance of blogging

12Apr10

All semester I have blogged twice a week for my PR class. I am not going to lie; the first few weeks I did not understand why my lecturers forced us to produce two blogs a week. However I now understand how important blogging has become to society, especially PR professionals.

In my PR classes I have learned a new style of writing. Before college I was used to writing with tones of voice and creativity. Now, however, I have been taught to write press releases and media advisories in a certain way with minimal voice. Blogging has allowed me to express myself and continue to maintain my voice and imagination.
