Reaction to Karp's story

Reading through Karp’s story made me realize just how much of an effect even the smallest things in the world can have on people. Blogging may have started out as just a fad or a way to pass the time online, but this story shows that even economically-powerful use it as part of their daily lives. Blogging seems to have gained a very large following all around the globe. This following is rapidly changing the way we view people around us. As more and more people blog and put their thoughts out for everyone to see, we find that everyone isn’t so different from everyone else. We relate to the struggles that others may be going through and sympathize with them. Because of this, we are starting to learn about communities all around the world and befriending them. As time goes on more and more people may start to learn about and sympathize with others through the art of blogging, helping people like Karp to find peace within their lives.
