Final Post

Completing this blog as opposed to a research paper was a very interesting experience. I am glad that I learned how to create a blog (I utilized these skills in another class already!) but I must say, I think I prefer a research paper--not because I hate blogging, but because I actually don't really mind doing research papers and enjoy the traditional approach. I feel like with the more colloquial approach of the blog, the research I performed was not as thorough as it would have been had I written a research paper. I also spent more time formatting the information I already knew to be interactive and comprehensive to the average Web browser rather than learning new things myself. The entire project itself took less time than a research paper, which I appreciated since this was quite a busy semester. Still, I think I would have gotten more out of a formal paper. Oh well. As I said before, I learned how to blog, so I can use those skills in the future.
