There’s been a real communication shift between friends and family separated by miles over the past decade or so. Keeping in touch now means less and less voice-to-voice contact, and more and more online conversation through social media, etc.
In some cases though, people look to start blogging keep friends and family up-to-date with their lives, perhaps about their gap year volunteering, their time at college, or maybe even starting their own family!
In this case, unfortunately these parents have forgotten to check in on their son’s blog and have missed all the news… or perhaps that’s what he hoped would happen!
It’s important to remember that not every generation uses the internet in the same way, so think how to start blogging to include everybody that matters.
Have you ever missed anyone special out of important news because you only posted it online?
