So I’ve been writing this blog mostly for the use of a course at Rowan University. Now that this part of the course is over I can say this is my final blog post. That is, my final blog post here. I did enjoy the chance to blog and I will most likely start my own blog now. However, I’d like to have a strictly personal one, not one where I’m sharing or one where I have to post about things I don’t really have much to say about. I’ll keep you updated if I happen to start a new blog. Until then…

Lonely Girl
I just was reading about Lonely girl and the impact she had on you tube. This idea that youtube is a new medium for this type of entertainment is a growing idea. Lonely Girl was an interactive video blog that allowed her viewers to respond to waht was thought to be a sixteen year old girl.
Is this ethical? I feel this is an ethical practice and may be the new form of entertainment for future generations. Not everything you see is real and nothing is more true then that for the internet. EWnjoy it for enjoyment sake and not try and make every show a “true” reality show.
