A sport I really didn't understand before my blog

I also learned a lot about technology from my blog. Having never used a blog before I really didn't understand how to embed videos and I wasn't very good at pulling pictures, videos and newspaper stories together to compile a post. I considered myself a journalist but I never considered myself a web journalist, or what you could call a 21st century journalist. Though I can gather evidence and write stories well that could be used by a newspaper print I couldn't use technology online to connect things the way this blog helped me. I now feel more confident in being able to use the Internet and connect different sites for credibility. Though I've had fun writing this blog it's been very challenging and keeping up with it on a day to day basis has been extremely difficult. Blogging and bloggers are journalists and I believe we're going to start to see a more dramatic shift in the way the news is received. Bloggers will become the new media and may begin to earn just as much money as in office journalists. We'll have to wait and see what happens with blogs, blogging and the Internet in general. It's been fun but for now I'd like to close my blog with one last story and even though I'm dying to write a post on the upcoming Cavaliers/Heat game where he-who-must-not-be-named will be returning to the city of Cleveland I promised I wouldn't. I will end with a man whose year has been maybe more exciting than #23's, Tiger Woods.
Blogger has taught me much about technology.
Over a year ago the sporting world was flipped upside-down when we learned about Tiger Woods and his infamous sex scandal. After being the golden boy of Nike, Tiger Woods shocked the world by revealing that he had a "sex addiction" and had had numerous affairs with women while married. The world has spent the last year waiting for different information to unfold on this story and we heard, from many women, the tales of his affairs and the crumble of his marriage. After a years worth of stories, press conferences, tears, rehab, emotional games of golf and what Tiger calls "his greatest year of personal growth away from golf", Tiger Woods will have his chance to regain his No. 1 golf ranking at the Chevron World Challenge this Thursday. The Chicago Tribune wrote that Tiger will tee off against 18 other golfers at Sherwood Country Club while golf's current No. 1 Lee Westwood will tee off in South Africa at the Nedbank Golf Challenge . If Tiger finishes well at Chevron and Westwood finishes outside of the top 2 at Nedbank Tiger will gain his No. 1 ranking back. If Tiger does not win the Chevron Challenge it will be his first win less year since he was a junior. Though it's been an emotional year for Woods I'm sure many of golf's faithful fans are hoping to see Tiger back at full swing.
It's been a while since fans have seen this Tiger
Westwood must finish outside of the Top 2 for Tiger
to claim the No. 1 spot.
