  1. I thought that with sites were easy to create an account for. The twitter account was slightly easier and it allowed you with immediate access to follow or be apart of stuff that interest you such as music, etc. In the linkedin account, it allowed you to import your contacts from yahoo messenger which was very helpful. I think that in Belizean environment these sites can be very helpful as both of them allow you to communicate information between parties or people whether it may be a group of one to one. It also allows those who are shy to speak their opinions or beliefs to have a medium to express those beliefs. Also, it serves a means to discover relatives or make new friend, provides access to job opportunities, etc. Conclusively, creating the blogs was a good experience as it shows that there are many more social media sites than just Facebook.

  3. I think I'm misunderstanding how to join the google group. I opened an account, but seem to be stuck there.
