HW:16, Interview with Ito
I really enjoyed the interview on Joi Ito, a very intelligent man from Japan also known as “the King of Japanese Blogging”. Besides that, I was very interested in what his responses were going to be like, coming from such a figure of Japan. After all, reading just the first few responses he seemed like he definitely knew most everything about the blogging life although, he explained that blogging is going to become more difficult to keep the business status up because of the cost. Granted, everything is going up these days, but I didn’t realize that blogging is getting more expensive because it’s becoming more popular. So too, Ito stated, “it’s going to become less expensive to distribute the stuff.” Of course meaning more people are going to be putting information out there and it’s going to become harder to get them to specifically read business material. Therefore he gave his input on how creativity will help in that case of getting bloggers main interests. As a result of this interview with Joi Ito, I saw his points of how blogging can be so powerful, but yet to look at it with my own perspective.
