Tweet: #rublogs can the mirror truly
reflect upon your image? or is it simply
the mirage of an oasis...
Upon my perusal of the list of potential
reviews to be critiqued, I came across an out of the ordinary blog aptly named “Mirror Mirror On The Wall”.
The blogs title seemed somewhat alluring and being the curious person I pretend
to be, I decided to enter the unknown thoughts of five journalism students.
My attention was caught by the somewhat
psychedelic template that has been used. A flurry of blue and purple combined
with the tranquillity of nature and hustle of city life provides the reader
with a feeling of peacefulness in the technological realm. The bizarre name “mirror
mirror on the wall” reflects the personification of a student’s blog; it distinguishes
ourselves from the chaotic world out there, and shows that as a youth we are in
the constant search of true identity, both academically and personally.
The content provides a platform for the student journalist in a world of dying compassion; it presents the problems we are presented with in a unique and quirky fashion. Some of the best posts include:
“BEEing the best that you can be”
“BEEing the best that you can be”
There are pictures in nearly every post.
Not only is each one a thought provoking image but also allows the reader a
clearer understanding of what kind of topic awaits them. If I offer only one
critique of the blog itself; it is that there are no additional features. What
I mean is that no links to other websites are provided, no individual profiles
present or even a short description of what the group is representative of. Despite
this, the blog has the potential to become a great weekly read.
