3: Taking Risks

In reading this chapter, nothing really stood out to me until the end section talking about changing templates, putting this in, blog rolling that, and I finally realized what this entire chapter was saying. Take Risks! Their chosen title of 'Getting Started' is much softer and p.c., but honestly this blogging option and all the possibilities that go with it are endless. At first its a leap to even post your information, but then you find out that its interesting and maybe even fun. To take complete ownership of the blog however, responsibilities and all, could lead to some very personalized and interesting sites that reflect the writer and what they want to portray to the public. This is a chance for students to take a few risks, that aren't all that risky at all.
