1. Some people would choose to have a blog instead of diary because of the people who can read and respond to it. Some people would rather type their thoughts on the internet and gather responses from people who have answered their blog. Also a blog is used over the internet making it very easy to acess as well as the fact that you could do many other things at the same time as reading a blog, while if you were writing something by hand not only could no one read it but you wouldnt get that same freedom as you get when you are on the internet. Also it gives you the freedom to read other peoples blogs as well as your own making it easier to obtain ideas.
2. A blog is different from a diary because it is more public, other people are able to acess it besides yourself. Also you would write it towards an audience since other people will be reading it, no use writing to yourself or someone might call you crazy. The last thing about writing a blog that makes it different from writing in a diary is the fact that you are able to ask questions to people and if they wish to they can answer them, there can be some philisophical questions or just some normal questions, in a way a blog can become msn.
3. I have decided to have a look at a blog written by a man who calls himself the 'Captain'. He seems to be a very opinionated man and get it across very strongly through his writing. His last post is written very angrily. He claims that nobody can take away his rite of passage and emphasises it strongly. He doesnt seem to have a lot of comments but that doesnt mean that no one is reading his blog. This man (presumably) has just recently updated his blog after leaving it since the 17th of April. Although his blog comes off a bit strong it is written very passionatly and brings forward many points about freedom. http://capitansblog.blogspot.com/
