Overall Thoughts.

This project has been particularly enlightening for me. I've been able to explore things that I never would have known about otherwise.

Some of the blogs that I spent time reading over the course of the semester didn't turn out like I had expected them to, so I didn't get to include then in the final blog. Some of the bloggers stopped regularly updating, some just started posting really boring posts.

With that said, there are a lot of the blogs that I've been following that I will continue to follow. I have found myself relating to the notion of the hyperreal because I know I've formed relationships with these bloggers, but they obviously don't know that. Although I think I'm perfectly able to separate my real relationships from the one's I've formed online throughout this project, I still think it's important to note the overall nature of the blogging community.

Through this journey I've found that there is something out there for everyone, whether you are interested in weight-related blogs, life in the middle of North Dakota, remedies to clogged drains, etc.

I definitely believe that I will become a better blogger [starting this summer after my exams!] because of this project. I really admire some of the relationships that have been formed between the bloggers that I've been following. I can only hope that I'll have such a positive experience once I fully dive-in to the world of blogging!!
