Freewrite about Blogging

The Movie Julie & Julia was very good. When I first saw the previews for it, I didn't think it looked to appealing, but it actually turned out to be very interesting. It's amazing how people begin to follow a blog. I don't know how the word gets out to everyone. I think it just started with her friends and family and eventually more and more people caught wind of what she was doing and began to follow. It would be really cool to be a professional blogger. I don't understand how you get that title or what it takes to become that, but it seems like it would be a fun, easy job. I do not know what I would want to blog about though. It would be fun to do the cooking and recipe thing for a year, but that would be a lot of work. It would be tough to keep up with the recipes while still having time for work and blogging about it. It would also probably be very expensive too. In the movie, she almost got fired because one day she missed work and the blog was basically the reason why. Although, Julie lied on her blog and said she didn't feel good, her boss was still suspicious and brought her into his office. It would be scary and quite unfair to be fired for what is written on your blog. I believe there is a line between what is appropriate and inappropriate to say on the web because everyone in the world can read it, but small things should not matter as long as it's respectful. Julie's blog was very respectful and didn't do anything but positive things. Other people may only have a blog because they want to bash someone, and that is very wrong. A blog is definitely not the right place to lash out and release your feelings about someone, even if it is anonymously. If there is a problem, it is best to confront the other person face-to-face rather than rant about it online.
