Part 5: Conclusion

Through my research for this project i learned that there was more to blogging than talking about yourself. Before i had never used a blog for recipes, news and information. I'd only read my friends blogs which were usually about themselves. I feel that this project was worthwhile to me because it showed me something that i didn't know a lot about. It also gave me something to apply what I've learned in the book to. I still feel that blogging has affected print journalism, and that my research still strongly supports my thesis. Because of blogging, newspapers and magazines have had to change their marketing strategies, and many have put their papers online so they can keep their audience. That is a big change for print journalism that came along because of the internet.
