Are You Sure You Want To Post That?

For this blog post I chose Willhillv and Jackies's blogs to compare in a rhetorical analysis perspective. They each address my subject matter, identitiy, safety  and privacy.Willhillv talks about the importance of friends and safety on the internet, and Jackie chooses to write about the facebook feature "check-in".

Pathos and Ethos were each used througout the postings but each were used in different ways. Will was a more upbeat and engaging while Jackie was more serious in addressing her issue. Will talks about facebook which is a popular site that most people know and recoginze. He uses his first contact with the site as an example, and how safety is an issue and how people who use the social networking site should be very careful in what they say and include.
Jackie talks about the "check-in" feature and how it does not keep the users safety and privacy in mind. She explains how the feature is very exposing, and allows other users to see exactly where the person is and how many miles it is away from their actual location. She addresses how this is unsafe and how it can be unwanted.

Will tries to make the reader aware of safety among social networking sites through the usage his own examples as a way to express himself. By doing so, it helps the reader relate to him so they too can make a way to feel safe and secure among social networking sites.

All in all, each of the blogs connect with another. They both stick to using one social media as an example and how it safety and privacy play an important role on many internet users lives. The readers of both of their blogs are also able to  convey the message each are trying to portray through their tones.
