		<description>Well, with big-time companies like CNN and the New York Times going as far as getting twitter accounts (granted, they link to their main website, but still I find the prospect interesting), I think actually tagging the word &quot;professional&quot; to any blog seems a bit strange to me.

I wouldn&#039;t actually go as far as saying certain blogs are more &quot;professional&quot; than others, since in the whole scheme of things, everything is just part of the giant cesspool that&#039;s the internet. Rather, I&#039;d just say that I prefer the certain styles of blogs more than others.

One major thing I personally like to see in the blogs I follow is a professional, yet personable, tone of voice, expressing their opinions/educating their audience in a way that the reader will enjoy. I know whenever I try to make an entry, I try to integrate some of my own &quot;Gabe-isms&quot;--stuff my friends could actually see myself saying aloud in a normal conversation--while still entertaining and educating my audience.

It&#039;s stuff like this that really makes me think about being an English major. *sigh* if only I weren&#039;t so practical :/.</description>
