To search for blogs, try using one of these sites:

Happy Spring Break!

    This blog is intersting to me because it involves and basically revolves around Metallica, which is my favorite band [right next to Tool and King Crimson]. Anything that has to deal with Metallica, or those others two bands, catches my attention.

  2. I think this blog is interesting because I love softball. I play it, and all of my family members and I grew up on baseball. It's nice to see blogs out there for softball.

    This blog is about the new Wii Dumbells made by Riiflex. I found it interesting because I have a Wii, and I didn’t know they were coming out with these. They seem pretty cool, but expensive. It’s a neat idea, but I don’t think they will sell.

    I think this blog is very interesting because technology is today’s news. I mean Apple is what everyone wants. Since Apple is ordering 100 million flash memory chips, more people might be buying more.

  6. Jordan H. - As you probably know I love the video games. So, i have gotten this blog.

    http://ff10x.blogspot.com/2009/04/final-fantasy-x-scenario-ultimania.html

    Its probably kind of lame, this is a blog that has fans of the game Final Fantasy X. I love this game. So, i guess this is my blog.

  7. Mandy E.-I didn't do any specific blog, but I decided to do one about what i thought about a blog page. The web address is http://www.deviantart.com/ and it is a sort of gallery for users to display their art and other people can post comments on it. It's kind of a different form of a blog, instead of written, it's done in another type of media. I really enjoy art so this website is one I visit often.

    I picked a blog that was about photography. I absolutely love taking photo's of the world around me. This blog is about a Digital Photography School, i thought that it was very neat! The web site is http://technorati.com/blogs/digital-photography-school.com . It gave good tips and was very imformative.

  9. I play softball, so I searched "softball" and I found this news blog. I think this is interesting because I have played softball for 6 years (including this year) and I know how dangerous the game actually can be, although most people believe it's not. I do have my own blogs, but they're not exciting and it's just used for talking to my friends and reporting daily events.

    This blog is interesting to me because it is a discussion about Brett Favre. I am the biggest Favre fan there is and i back his decisions 100%. He is without a doubt the greatest quarterback of all time. No question! And i am interested in others view on the subject and how they can disagree with the fact.

  11. I looked at a blog about the, "NAISMITH MEMORIAL BASKETBALL HALL OF FAME ANNOUNCES FIVE MEMBERS AS THE CLASS OF 2009". It tells us that they inducted 5 more members to the hall of fame. It is a huge honor for those who make it, to get inducted. You can see it at, http://www.hoophall.com/genrel/040609aaa.html

  13. Lexey P.- I like this blog post because it talks about the Amazing Race. Ilove the show, but I don't really know that much about the teams and who they are and where they came from. This is a good blog because it gives the reader information about the players.

    This is basically a blog because it allows you to comment on posts and they update it a lot.
    I chose this blog because it is about photography and that is one of my hobbies. The creators of the website/blog share tips with you on how to take better shots. People browsing the web are allowed to comment it and ask questions or answer them from someone else that commented.

    I put this URL on this blog comment post because, snowboarding is a really popular hobby and everyone is talking about it and how people want to go really bad. Wilmot Mountain is not theat far away from here, it's just a 2 minute car ride.

    I chose this blog because the whole thing revolves around music. I have visited this blog before, and I think its fun and interesting. It provides music videos, artist updates, and the Top 20 Countdown.

  18. 607- I absolutely love fashion. Girls always care what they look like, just like I do. Here is a blog that talks about us, girls, in general and fashion: http://technorati.com/posts/c24SjWe%2Bo_rVD7WpItj1c4PEso1sCkq%2Bxrm1ysdRs0A%3D. I think it tells the truth about how we feel, what we think, and what we want. Check it out!
