During the time completing this course work, I have gain many knowledge and information about issues in publication and design. Putnis and Petelin (1996, p. 234) stated as we will be keep in thinking and learning as we write more. The things I have learned and knowledge I gain are applicable in my future career. Therefore, this assignment makes me gained extra skills in web blogging, as I was not familiar with the blogging system.
Initially, discussing issues in publication and design enable me to set my purpose in targeting my audience accurately. Putnis and Petelin (1996, p. 241) says many writers did not consider the content they are writing. Hence, prior to the serious weblog I had to set my target audience, purpose, and context, thus my audience can understand and interested in the topic I discussed. Besides, I learned to choose topics carefully as I am living in a multiracial country, the topic can be offensive to other races and lead to public uproar if I did not select carefully. Although it seems limiting my skills in web blogging, I viewed it as a challenge for me to test my weblog skills. For instance, language, punctuation, and sensitive issues. Consequently, bloggers should respect other cultural background readers before posting some issues blindly.
Furthermore, I also learned that references are essential for web blogging. Copyright infringement is a serious issue if blogger did not reference upon using others information. Moreover, there are many blog readers in the internet, there is chances that others may quote our information. Hence, information accuracy is important in order to provide a credible weblog to the audience.
