I can recall a time when the word “blog” would raise eyebrows and generate looks of suspicion. Its use was often followed by an explanation that “blog” is actually short for “weblog”, and it was a form of online journal. It seems that everyone, at some point, has started a blog.

The focus of the class was on feature writing and digital storytelling (I’ll come back to this in a later blog) but it began by exploring why – and how – journalism in the digital age has to be different. . A few months ago I enjoyed attending a Guardian Masterclass with senior feature writer Jon Henley.

When I first started writing essays for school, the rule we were given was “no online sources allowed.” Imagine trying to write a guide for citing online sources in 1997, the year before Google was founded? If I am writing a paper, I can say that Russia is the largest country in the world without having to provide a source.

If you go from just having an idea (first line) to trying to capture it as a product (next), whether a diagram or a screed, to communicate to some hypothetical reader, you find out that you might not have thought it out fully (the first benefit to having a personal journal, e.g. blogging). And this is good.
