3 Magical Ways to Let Your Opinions Be Known, Part 2

by Rhondole Scott

Isn't it amazing to be able to turn on a computer and access just about any idea or piece of information, useful or not? For many there is no other way, for so many have grown up with computers and accessible information. Many have taken their own stories or interests to the internet. Are you ready to share your thoughts and expertise to the world?

When we discuss the idea of bringing your message to the world, blogging is usually the first consideration. Blogs can vary from a theme of an online diary to product reviews, opinions and tips.

One of the best ways to try the blogging concept on for size is to sign up for a free blogging site. There are many blogging communities available at no cost. The flip side is that there are limits on the themes available, as well as the extra add on components at these free blogging sites.

Some blogging sites, like blogger, allow pay per click ads to be displayed in the blog. In fact this particular blogging community has an add-on for your site readily available for showing related google ads. Why google ads, you ask? Simple - Google owns this blogging community.

Blogging is not the only option for bringing your message to the world. There are also pods, which might be viewed as a one-time use blog. Pods are similar to blogs in the sense of the single or related theme, but don't have as much creative space for the look of the pod or added features.

Another option for making your mark in the online world is through social networking. These online communities offer the ability to link to your friends and family who also have pages in the network. Two of the most commonly known social networking sites is MySpace and FaceBook.

There are other options for making your presence known in the online world, but blogging, pods, and social networking have become the standards for online presence and communication. It's simple to set up, and gives you a great way to share stories and photos with your family, group or community.
