Exploring CyberJournalist.net

As the title of this blog post may suggest, I explored the suggested website, cyberjournalist.net for this week. I noticed it was very similar to tumblr, with different quotes, pictures and articles posted in chronological order for the viewer to read. I liked the format because it was really easy for me to skim and scroll them abruptly stop when something caught my eye. I think it's also cool because journalists post writing tips for viewers and other writers. For example, somebody posted a link to "Kurt Vonnegut's 8 Keys to the Power of the Written Word". there are a variety of stories ranging from "US Military Scientists Solve the Fundamental Problem of viral Marketing" to "How Facebook Mastered Mobile Adds". It's basically an online forum where journalists and writers post what they're writing, what they're thinking and what inspires them. I thought it was an easy to follow and fun format but also informative.
