“When liberty comes with hands dabbled in blood it is hard to shake hands with her.” Oscar Wilde

The fascination of the internet has quickly changed the students life. Rather than going to the stale, gloomy library students now surf the web in the privacy of their dormitory. Since then, professors have utilized the internet capabilities to encourage students to research different resources to acquire more in depth knowledge. Now we have Google reader which helps sort information to best utilize the tools and resources of the internet. Due to all the technology listed above this edublogs purpose is to analyze the literature from my English 384, literature of warfare class and evaluate the information with other resources gathered from the internet.

The two news feeds I have acquired include BBC and NY times. I have always relied on the New York times for up to date reliable information. Furthermore, I find that BBC will provide me with a less biased point of view then NY times might.  I will also be using Al Jezeera news website to compare and contrast the information I receive from NY times and BBC. Lastly, my podcast is from Military.com From the Editors Desk because while I am trying to gather true media coverage from BBC and NY times, I really want to know what the military men are hearing and moreover, what they enjoy listening to. This podcast has had conversations relating to new bands to the upcoming movie At War which I am truly interested in.

In addition, to the news feeds, I am using Slate magazine, and Milblogging to acquire a better understanding of the thoughts, emotions and life of the military personals. Overall, Google reader has already enlightened me throughly in the war and I much as other students are intrigued to utilized these new resources to write the most updated and valid information regarding the war for our class.
