“Where exactly does blogging lead the newspapers and magazines of traditional print as newspapers start closing off their printing presses and move into the digital world like us bloggers on the topic of nothingness?”, asked the question posed in my information systems worksheet.

For published news services such as newspapers and magazines, the traditional print methods are already being replaced by online versions whereby some content is free and some content is subscription based, and paper copies are being phased out thus causing redundancy in the printing industries.

However, the future of published news services in general may lead to nonexistence because though the writers of newspapers are journalists and thus write in a standardised and valid way supposedly free from less bias than blogs, there is censorship and large media influences on the content.

In contrast, news for the people by the people can be published in blogs, and in future they may be preferred over the traditional methods. Perhaps in the future, traditional newspapers may get people to pay-to-write on their online versions, rather than subscription based pay-to-view.
However, that’s probably out of the question because people can create their own blogs,and the reputation which the newspapers are only thing relying on – their reliability as a valid news source, will be put into more jeopardy than currently with the influx of people venting.

Thus the whole industry may collapse in future to make way for blogging, or perhaps more fact based news without any spin to it, akin to the likes of social networking in brief lines such as Twitter, shortening news services the same way the English language has been shortened by sms language and those awful abbreviations.

Well, the pressure of uni is heating up as assignments start getting closer to due dates, and I look forward to but also abhor the midsession break because there will be more assignments and why is the internet so distracting? Why too, is life and the various things one can do?

So what’s been up? Probably trying to fine tune by terrible organisational skills. Oh and I really don’t like my infs group since they’re pretty much the stereotypical team for group work. Well, with 40% group component for the coursework, I’m in trouble.

The Watchmen is pretty good as a comic strikes out I mean, a graphics novel, however I haven’t had the time to read through enough of it without feeling guilty for neglecting homework that I’m supposed to do — which I’m neglecting at this very instance so I shall go back to it.

Ta.

Is March a time of many birthdays? First one, Monday – my cousin’s, of which I’m actually fairly tardy on so uhh, let’s just pretend its the fact that I haven’t seen him since the week before so its okay. Then on Friday there were two birthdays, and it was also the eight month together. Fun times =). Got in trouble for being out so late though… Oh well, celebrate because a certain year’s birthday is only once in a person’s life! Happy Birthday, March people!
Or what was that zodiac sign again? Pisces/Aries cusps.

I don’t turn 20 for a long while=( Well not really, it’s more like 2 months away but still, I don’t know if its just university compared to high school, but there’s just a greater proportion of people who have birthdays in the latter months of the year as opposed to the early middle of the year.

But now even they have birthdays and I suppose 20 is just a distant thought. But does anything really change other than leaving your teens? 21st is the actual point where you’re considered a legal adult [well, okay, it's 18 in Australia but that doesn't really count even IF that's where I currently am ]

Let’s stick to the 100 words a day post pattern. Even though my ability to formulate words has been hindered through the toll which university and illness-infested holidays have brought upon me.
