Assignment

In this assignment, you'll be writing a blog post that tells your readers what they need to know about blogging. Your post should be at least two to three paragraphs long and function as a how-to guide for novice bloggers.

Make sure to address the following questions:
- How should a great blog be designed and formatted?
- What features should a great blog include?
- How should a great blog use different media?
- What might the future of blogging hold?

There is probably no single right answer to any of these questions. What's important is that you try to convince people of your opinions. Try to be specific and use plenty of concrete examples.
