The genre of blog writing in general is very wide spread and very truthful. Some comments are funny and the others can hurt the writers feelings. Some are very short and direct and others are very drawn out. Most blogs are different subjects and you are not tied down to one specific topic. You are achieving the common goal of READING! You are reaching a larger span of people. The old and the young. It is similar because the kids are reading and writing. Commenting is expressing your views and also lending support to people who need it. Yes, there is a blogging literacy. If I were to read a teenagers blog, I bet I could not tell you 1/2 of what it means. Blogging affects the way we read and write, we read more for understanding and we tend to watch what we write. Also, blogging sometimes lets our full emotions come out. The kids are more likely to post on a blog than to write on paper. They are more happy to read on the computer than in a book.
