My Blog

I liked that I got to be creative and do a little research on this project. I didn’t like this project because it was a little challenging to come up with a slogan.

In my group, communication and the project topic idea which was BlockBuster worked really welll becuase evryone was chill and agreed to the idea. Something that could have worked better, would be having my group members contribute a little bit of time to the google doc and not wait to the last minute to finish it. But overall it was a great group to work with.

I would give our project an A, because we worked reallly hard getting everyones contributions done to the project, including learning how to work with illustrator a lot better, reserching a failing business, and also enjoying how to create an ad campaigne. I put in a lot of effort into this project, becuase I did some research on the failing business my group chose, got creative with my poster, and contributed my time and effort on the slides and google doc.

To make this project better, I could have talked to my group about maybe adding a little bit more color, including maybe adding a picture of the last BlockBuster in Bend, OR so viewers could get a better visual of the location.

The theme of our add campaign is digging up fossils from the pass. I have completed my ad poster including writing some additional information in my group’s google doc and getting a head start on the google slides. I need to still finish up the google doc and some of the google slides. Yes, all the posters are on theme but we just need one of our members to add his poster to the slides including adding our dirt backgrounto his. We don’t need to change anything at the moment.

This period I changed the layout picture for my blog. This will help my readers and viewers understand or get a visual idea of what my post is about. Also learning more about how to change and update my blog.

I learned how to work with shapes on illustrator.

I created the logo I created, because it will help give readers and athletes about what my blog is about.

I found the video to be helpful because it gave good tips on how to become a pro and how to use the app correctly.

I hope to learn about what a life is like/ what skills are used in the business world.

This is an example post, originally published as part of Blogging University. Enroll in one of our ten programs, and start your blog right.

You’re going to publish a post today. Don’t worry about how your blog looks. Don’t worry if you haven’t given it a name yet, or you’re feeling overwhelmed. Just click the “New Post” button, and tell us why you’re here.

Why do this?

• Because it gives new readers context. What are you about? Why should they read your blog?
• Because it will help you focus you own ideas about your blog and what you’d like to do with it.

The post can be short or long, a personal intro to your life or a bloggy mission statement, a manifesto for the future or a simple outline of your the types of things you hope to publish.

To help you get started, here are a few questions:

• Why are you blogging publicly, rather than keeping a personal journal?
• What topics do you think you’ll write about?
• Who would you love to connect with via your blog?
• If you blog successfully throughout the next year, what would you hope to have accomplished?

You’re not locked into any of this; one of the wonderful things about blogs is how they constantly evolve as we learn, grow, and interact with one another — but it’s good to know where and why you started, and articulating your goals may just give you a few other post ideas.

Can’t think how to get started? Just write the first thing that pops into your head. Anne Lamott, author of a book on writing we love, says that you need to give yourself permission to write a “crappy first draft”. Anne makes a great point — just start writing, and worry about editing it later.

When you’re ready to publish, give your post three to five tags that describe your blog’s focus — writing, photography, fiction, parenting, food, cars, movies, sports, whatever. These tags will help others who care about your topics find you in the Reader. Make sure one of the tags is “zerotohero,” so other new bloggers can find you, too.
