HW16: The Five Things That Make Blogging Hot

Blogging is so popular online because of five things, according to Robert Scoble (Kline and Burstein 130). First of all, being able to publish your blogs with simplicity and ease is very important. Next, tags and pings help with being able to discover the overall subject of a blog if you needed relevant information. Thirdly, being able to communicate to other subscribers over the blogsite seems to be infectiously popular. The fourth thing is being able to click on a URL that will bring you directly to a blog post, keeping it even simpler for new or beginning users. Lastly, with syndication, blogging is the owner of the most simple syndication system on the net, keeping users as far away from frustration as possible.
