Vanity Search & Google *BONUS*

Since we have discussed vanity searches in class multiple times, I thought I would give it a go and type my own name in the search blog. Much to my surprise, the very first site listed under the results page was a link to this blog. The second result was a link to a blog that I had done for another class at the University of Delaware, Accounting 208. I'd have to say that this blog is much more enjoyable to maintain. The blog I had to keep for Acct was very standardized and each entry had to be heavily researched, which I believe completely defeats the purpose of a weblog. It was as if each blog entry was a mini-research paper. Oppositely, this blog for BUAD 477 allows students to express class material and other areas of interest in a laid-back manner. I have definately learned more about blogging and class material through this type of communication. In fact, I completely forgot about the other blog I had created just one year ago!
