the word blogger is just booger with an L

I am writing this blog for a class but also as a personal experiment for myself. I want to see if people actually take this stuff seriously. I mean I know their are like a billion people around the world blogging a new blog about someones blog about every 15 seconds but still do people really even care. Is this a trusted source for information or is it simply for entertainment? Its seems as though those lines are becoming more blurry everyday. Personal opinionated sites and figures do have the ability to brake stories and after seeing a good friend of mine who is in RTA, gain unseen amounts of popularity simply off of his own youtube hockey commentary video-blog, I am starting to wonder if this might actually have an effect on someones life. Like if some journalist is realy cramed for a serious deadline and needs to serach the web in hopes of coming across a random blogger who is wondering if blogging is really a trustworty source of information or if it is simply just enterainment and than they site my blog as proof that other people are thinkng the same thing. Highly unlikely but fun to think about. To be honest I have never really taken this blog phoenomenm to seriously, I always thought it was a bunch of wierd computer geeks transfering encoded messages on personal pages nobody would ever care to find. I was pleaslty suprised to hear about a guy who is rather popular on youtube and does provide his own take on daily news event. His name is Philip DeDeFranco and he goes by the name "sxephil" on youtube and I actually dont mind his random rants on current events. Guess this blog thing can help shed lights on some things I have been in the dark about forever. P.S. I started this first entry at like 2:30 in the morning and I know it was supposed to be done on the 27th. Please dont duduct marks. Your the best.
