Tz Journalist managing their blogs

Today 27 August 2008 we began the session by reviewing each participant’s blog
created yesterday.

The facilitator made comments on each blog, I liked the comments given to all participants because they were encouraging comments.

After review we were given task to write astory of what we didi yesterday and put down any exiting issues or problems that arised yesterday.

Everyone participated and we all posted the story to our blogs and went for health break (Chai’ and eggs).

After Chai we went on practising posting as well as editing our posts and learn how to link other websites in our blogs.

The facilitator explained a bit about bloggers and that enyone out ther can be a bloger don’t have to be journalist to blogger.

We also had session on Central task of searching content in the World wide web- www. Since there are trillions of data and information in the www searchers need to be very straight in order to easily get the kind of information required.

WWW is very crucial to the journalist we can do research as well as broad our knowledge by finding various information through internet.

As journalist we do reporting on different issues that vary from day to day life and technology thus we must be keen on finding accurate information that will help us write good stories from unique angles. The more information we have the more creative we shall be.

It is sad fact that most of time due to limited information among journalist many issues are left uncovered because reporting base on what is heard at that moment. The situation can change only by broad knowledge which can easily be obtained through the internet.

However when the internet searching must go hand in hand with prior awareness of what is required.

Tanapa, uefa, USA white house, Tanzania Government website, Zain, Karagwe contact are some of the website visited.
