The use of blogging has allowed information to be given to the rest of the world about the Japan disaster.
Since the disaster on Friday many people have blogged about the subject and have uploaded videos, pictures and texts about it. This gives more people information and they find out more from blogging.
The blogs on Japan include live update blogs. These mean that there is an update every thirty minutes on the crisis and what is expected. Whenever there is something to put up it is done through the blog. This shows that the form of blogging has been used to give information too the rest of the world.
This blog gives updates on the aftershocks in the different areas of Japan and how this is affecting these areas. Through this blog there are reports given on blackout warnings for Tokyo.
Another blog is giving a different view asking the question should we be donating to “rich” Japan. This blog gives a different view. It focuses on if people in Japan need the help as they are a wealthy country and it is argued that they should handle a disaster like this.
Another blog I have seen is by CNN and includes live updates on the events in Japan and how people are coping with the aftermath. This is a good blog as it gives information as it happens and keeps the people of the world updated. Another good point off this blog is that it includes videos which also give information.
Blogs such as these show the benefit of blogging. Blogging gives information to a wider audience and video and pictures. Blogs are also very easy to get. Typing in Japan blogs brings up many different blogs. This gives a better chance of finding information and learning more.
Overall blogs are a very helpful and interesting way of learning new information and also giving information.
