Millions of social networks, forums, and accounts all requiring a username, password and email. I usually use the same username or a variation of it; Simmons, Dr. Simmons, DocSimmons, etc and I think of all the information I have put on the internet.
I'm just entering into the world of computers, at first I didn't wanted to even get close to one, because I was scared...

I have to say, progressiveu is taking me a while to get used to. My biggest problem is the word limit. I can understand for the scholarship having a word limit but from what I have read about progressiveu’s policy, the post, regardless of if it is for the contest must be 200 words.
I feel the insatiable need to write. About something. Relevant. Hot topic. I read this terrible book about political strategy, and the author mentioned button pressing platforms. To gain attention, talk about the hot topics of daily interest, and develop a platform on these issues. Despite hating the actual book, I thought it was good advice. I might as well follow suit, ya?
A few years back it was somewhat bad for people to freely express their opinions but thanks to the internet, blogging was created. I love to express myself and I love to read other people's opinions about very important issues. Sometimes I can blog better than I can talk because sometimes you might be talking to a person that doesn't like to discusss certain things.
We as Americans (sorry if you’re not in the US but maybe this will give you some insight to our culture) are promised freedom of speech untouched by the government and uncensored. Yet is that what was truly meant? Did our Forefathers want true freedom of speech or merely freedom of speech as long as society found it acceptable?
No matter where you are at in the Blogging, it benefits all.
Blogging can be used to promote your cause. It can be used to state your mind,
Blogging, because it is writing, is the doing part of thinking. If you think you progress... and have a progressive u.
