Group post?

Oh the effort.
Once again we've been assigned a blog post to be created via wave as a group.

Here's what we managed:

Blogs are a form of communication, but are they part of literature? They certainly have qualities we associate with literature such as well, obviously, writing, and of course story lines. They have a specific narrative, although it is not neccesairly conventional until you look at how things like TV shows are set up. Rettberg notes that blogs, like TV shows can exist on their own (you can watch one episode of a show, or read one post of a blog and enjoy it, perhaps not as much as watching an entire series or following a blog or reading it's archives, but you can either way). She also notes that people seem to tend to write with an end goal in mind, hoping to look back on all that they have done or written about. Because blogs are oftentimes meant to be representative of a certain person, whether or not they are themselves explicitly personal, it can be very distressing for readers to discover their author they've been devotedly following is fictional.
