Reflection Post

Now we have reached the end of the year and this blog's life.
Overall, the experience has been rather hectic. Much work and dedication goes into keeping up such a thing.

I had little respect and little thought devoted to the blogesphere when I began my journey as a naive blogger. Now, however, I realize that this blogging thing is no joke. Gathering information and formulating a topic is only half the battle. To be a journalist and a blogger may very well be twice the work as being a journalist for a news paper or a magazine. Not only was I a journalist, but I also was editor, designer, and producer of all my stories. Blogging comes with much responsibility and power.

There are no checks and balances on the world wide web, but for the people who read the information. Public journalism has entered a new realm of possibility, as an ordinary average citizen may report on matters, especially situations that may not immediately be reported on by other commercialized news efforts, such as local events.
When it all is said and done, the public has the power in a democracy. What is said will be said, what is done will be done, and everyone still has to eat... so blogging about food could never be thrown aside.

Long live dining.
