Everything Old Becoming New- Grohol

Ironically, Grohol  chose to criticize an author our class has read before, Meg Hourihan. He disagrees with her “tunnel vision” and close-minded opinion of blogs.  Grohol regards blogs as a necessary part of the internet and hopes they become mainstream rather than viewed as an annoyance. The numbers make it clear that blogs are mainstream with the top popular blog, Huffington Post, receiving a whopping fifty four million visits per month. They are a business tool just as much as a social outlet. Many businesses incorporate blogs as marketing tools to alert the public about their progress. The title of the blog is very fitting to my future career. Technology is more popular and utilized more frequently than ever. A quote that stuck out to me was "everything unique is something old repositioned" because creativity is not truly unique, it is borrowed. Inspiration must come from somewhere and build off of something that already exists.
