Research is the process of gathering information, evaluating it, and applying it to a question or problem.When writing for digital media, research allows writers to narrow their focus. Having a narrow focus makes a blog more interesting and the writer an expert on the topic. | Research is the process of gathering information, evaluating it, and applying it to a question or problem.When writing for digital media, research allows writers to narrow their focus.

When starting a college blog, it is important to know how to encourage participation with not only other bloggers, but the readers.

Blogrolls, share buttons, and enabling comments are a few ways to increase participation. | When starting a college blog, it is important to know how to encourage participation with not only other bloggers, but the readers.
