1. There are many differences between a blog and a book. Books, first of all, are organized, take time to read, and have a given amount information to read. Blogs, on the other hand, are unorganized, concise in most cases, and can take you to infinite amounts of links or related topic, grabbing whatever they want from whatever they want.
2. Blogging has recently changed, mostly because early bloggers wouldn't show much commentary, but instead, would offer place names and coordinates on the web. Other than this you could say that blogging has become much more popular now than when it started back in the early 1980s. Nowadays, hundreds of millions of people all around the world use blogs for a much wider variety of reasons, such as politics, gossips, pictures, etc.
3. I might have read a blog in the past for a couple of reasons. Mainly it could have been because I was searching for different opinions or arguments on big issues or projects going on at the time. Honestly though, I haven't gotten fully used o blogs, and will usually browse for other internet pages when seeking information.
4. I actually do believe that there is reason to doubt a blog's objectivity. In my opinion, I would say that most blogs are completely subjective and give personal, biased opinion. Specially in cases such as politics, or book reflections (like we will be doing in this class), the writer will always write what he or she is thinking. This opposes the idea that blogs are objective.
