Webpages vs. Blogs

The main purpose of a  blog is to provide as much collaboration as possible, this is achieved by having multiple authors with the goal of having as many comments and points of views as possible.  On a typical web page, the creator or author is the only one that usually post comments on the page. With a blog, many can post and share to create a more classroom environment .  The creator of the blog acts more as a facilitator of ideas instead of the sole originator of ideas. This gives more people the chance to share their ideas, stories, and insights.  It allows people from all professions (not just writers and scholarly journals) to share insights and ideas.  With all this info and the variety of sources comes much responsibility.  Obviously with the number of blogs, authors, contributors all information from blogs (and many websites too) must be checked for facts.  Through this is true, Blogs can and do provide a great starting point for generating ideas.
