Posts Worth Sharing

Post on December 4th, 2006 by chipsey-101

Heyyy =D

How are you? I’m pretty good, just sitting here in the computer lab, writing this post! Mr. Fisher gave us an assignment in computer class today; we have to find two interesting posts on the blogs of other people and write about them, and why they are worth sharing.

Post #1
I found this post on Mr. Hide’s blog. It was about a new Disney movie coming out in February called “Bridge To Terabithia.” Come to think of it, I read this book in grade six! It was one of the best books I’ve ever read. Anyways…back to the post. Why is this one worth sharing? Well, it really stood out to me because of this line:

“From the trailer, I am a little worried that Disney has taken this great story about imagination and friendship and turned it into a special effects extravaganza. Shouldn’t a movie about the power of imagination help to develop imagination?”

To be honest, I didn’t get what he meant at first. I dug a little deeper, and now I understand. Agree or disagree, Walt Disney is all about making movies filled with special effects and creating your imagination. No offense, but if you haven’t noticed, all of his movies are like that. When I read the book, “Bridge To Terabithia,” I automatically knew this movie wasn’t about special effects and everything like that. It was a serious book about love, nothing like what Walt Disney would create. Not trying to dis Walt Disney or anything, but I don’t think he could make a movie of “Bridge To Terabithia” without killing it. =) (Sorry to all you Walt Disney fans out there.)

Mr. Hide had provided a link in this post. To view it, click here.

I really like what Mr. Hide had written: “Shouldn’t a movie about the power of imagination help to develop imagination?” What I’m getting out of this line is that Walt Disney is trying to create your imagination whenever he makes a movie, when movies should be about building your own imagination. I think this is why this post really caught my eye.

Post #2

This post has no links to videos or anything; yet the meaning in it is something that I think should be noticed. I got this post from the Nata Village blog; click here to read it and comment on it.

Now, read the post so that you get what I’m talking about, k?

Now that Nata Village will have a laptop, they’ll be able to connect to places all over the world like anyone else. Nata Village is a little less fortunate, but they still have a laptop and internet connection.

Kinda makes you think.

If one place like Nata Village can get a laptop and an internet connection, think about everyone else with a lot of money can do! They can get an internet connection, which means that they can blog as well. Soon enough, everyone will have a blog, and soon enough everyone will be neighbours with each other.

And you can be on the other side of the world and still be neighbours.

How cool.

This is why this post really stood out to me. To view the Nata Village blog, click here.

One last thing…

If you find any other posts that really appeal to you, please feel free to leave a comment with a link provided to it on this post. If I agree with you that it’s really interesting, I’ll check it out, and probably write a post about it!
