The last blog I did pretty much summed up the success we have had throughout our blog and country music has had at coming into the forefront of the music industry. So I decided as my last blog I would just reflect a little on the blogging process since this was my first time ever participating in a blog.
At the beginning of this project I wasn’t sure how much I would like doing a blog, but I ended up really enjoying it. I would have to say that this was probably my favorite project. I really liked being able to see what other people in my group found and decided to write about and furthermore, I liked being about to add comments to other blogs. Particularly within our blog, I really enjoyed learning about all the different sub-categories of country music and it makes me want to find out what sub-categories are in other music genres. As well, it was very interesting for me to be able to compare and contrast country music in Australia and the States. I even learned about a show that airs back home called Nashville Star from a post by one of my group members. I had never heard of that show before even though it is on its sixth year. It was really interesting to look at country music and all the different aspects of it that I never knew existed – I am a fan of country music and I learned so much from this project. I now like different types of country music that I had never known about and I like country music even more!
However, I do have to say that one thing did really frustrate me with this blog. I found some very good pictures and a flyer that could have enhanced some of my blogs, but I could not get them to post on my blogs. I tried so many different ways and nothing worked! Besides that though, I really liked digging deep into country music and bringing it out of its shadows!
Great Job Everyone!! I feel we did a very good job at shining a new light on country music!!
