Important design factors such as integrating form and function to produce an effective piece as proposed by Bear (2006) that form needs to work with function to achieve the goal of the document. The theory of multimodality by Walsh (2006, p.24) has also been applied to the blog, as a various mix of images, text and video can be used to enhance the message being sent.
I also learnt that as a blogger and part of the web community, there are certain stances I must take. For example, the posting of content of pornographic and inappropriate nature is strictly prohibited. Using correct grammar and refraining from using internet jargon and shorthand is also important to send out the right message about the purpose of this blog.
