While your blog is meant to be a place for you to share and reflect on your personal thoughts and feelings as you proceed through this course, you are more than welcome to just talk about the text, if academic style writing is more your thing. That, too, is a form of bloggery! I just want to express that for the purposes of this course, you are not required to use academic language, or relate every topic of discussion you post on your blog back to something you read about in one of your texts.
While you may write in a more laid-back style, it's important that your readers are able to understand what you are saying. While I know quite a bit of computerese (like, omg, srsly, 4elz, lmbo!) blog posts should not be filled with textese or IM (Instant Messenger) speak. While the occasional "lol" is perfectly acceptable, please keep the abbreviations to a minimum. Thnx! ;)
