Effective Blog Writing

I appreciate the way Dave talked about blogging voice. Several bloggers, who see themselves as more adept in blog writing, focus particularly on the form (grammar, spelling, layout and alignment in paragraphs). They do not know that texts are intermediated by voices. And that these voices change according to the variation of text genres. In an argumentative text, for instance, the dominant voice is an objective one, with no space for emotionality and bias. But in blogging, a more friendly interactive voice should prevail. One should, as you Dave noticed, imagine oneself in a cafe chatting with friends. For the main purpose of blogging after all is the exchange of ideas pertaining to all topics. Personally, I would adopt a conversational informal voice if I am to continue blogging outside classroom. I believe that such voice would attract the attention of diverse readers from different nationalities. As such, my blog is more likely to be enriched by various insights. In this connection, I would probably write about topics that have to do with global issues such as environmental sustainability, entrepreneurship and regional conflicts and so on and so forth.
