Yes!
As you know, I have started my online quest to improve my writing skills. In particular, I had first started my journey in the area of punctuation.
After just my second post, my good friend Wes Thorp asked if I was "barking up the wrong tree". You see, Wes was concerned that I might fall into the trap of using effective print strategies, and bring them to my blog.
How wonderful it is to have good friends, like Wes Thorp, who challenge you, cheer you on, and continually show a genuine interest in your life. Thanks Wes!
Therefore, to be clear, there are significant fundamental differences in best writing practices between print, and online. These communication distinctions, just to keep it interesting, are also in a state of constant flux.
Here are two resources that I intend to rely on heavily to keep my writing style Internet friendly, yet increasingly more stylistically competent:
- The Purdue Online Writing Lab (referred by my neighbor Susan)
- Useit.com - (referred by Wes Thorp)
If you know of any great resources to help us all further our Internet communication competencies, please share them in the comments section of this post!
Thanks!
