HW:18 Scobles’ rules
Some of the principles that clicked with me when I read an article from Jezebel were: telling the truth, using a human voice, never hides information, posting fast on good news or bad, and knowing the information gatekeeper. The article that I read was “24-year-old Female Meth Addict is, Frankly, Almost Beyond Repair.” In this blog I found those principles because the information was letting us know about this rich 24-year-old who was living the life and not doing a thing. The author is talking to the reader in a human voice and not hiding a thing. It also referred to a video clip acknowledging where the information came from. I’m not really sure if this article is not following Scoble’s principles or not because the rest of the principles really rely on the information behind the scenes that isn’t known by the reader. These principles however, I believe are applicable to the blog and provide good steps to fallow in having a readable blog.
