After reading this article by Sara Boxer I realized that I do agree with her point of view regarding the differences between the books and the blogs. Personally I think that a blog is better than a book, since in a blog you can expand the topic by reading other peoples blogs expressing their own ideas about a certain topic, but then you can see the comments of others and understand their point of view. Also you can go into different links and find connections between this topic and many others. This helps broaden the topic and helps connect everything to understand better all the different opinions. The problem is that blogs sometimes have no walls and this may make you start reading about celebrity gossip and then end up reading about the Industrial revolution due to you following the links.
On the other hand books have a good thing which is that it is focused on one topic, with one opinion from start to the end. This is really helpful in the sense that you will have a better background knowledge on the topic and this will make you decide whether you agree with the author’s point of view or disagree. But books are only focused on the ideas of one person. And they will not give you the chance to comment on the author’s opinions, or even hearing about another point of view in that same topic. Personally as I mentioned before I prefer reading blogs over books because they have different opinions and can help you make connections with other topics.
