How can you use a blog to learn?

Blogs open a new world of information for users worldwide. You can find blogs on just about any topic your looking for. They offer a lot of diversity and allow you to get the insight of different kinds of people. It is a good way to learn because rather than getting the general text book definition of things you can get a wide variety of information based on peoples opinions and personal experience. One thing is ,though, that you cant trust everything you read or hear. You have to read and gather the information you see which other people comment on and confirm or which multiple people may right about. Later you take the information you gathered and confirm it by doing research. On top of that you also get practice writing and reading in the real world. You can also learn alot about people in general. By reading peoples ideas and feelings you may see alot of opinions that you never thought existed. I think blogs are a good way expand your knowledge and open new doors for yourself.
