PETA BLOG
It is clear to see that blogs have now become one of the most popular forms of information retrieval on the internet.There are blogs on virtually every topic, however the challenge becomes separating the good blogs from the bad. A good blog should be interesting and promote debates among its followers. But first and foremost a good blog should inform you on the topic of your interest. One topic that I have always found intriguing was animals, in particular the treatment of animals. Although there are numerous blogs on this topic, finding a reputable blog that is interesting, informative, unique, and honest can be somewhat difficult. However, when going through searches for blogs about animals it’s virtually impossible not to stumble upon PETA.
PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals) is one of the world’s most successful and effective advocacy organizations. PETA has long been an authority on this topic and their style and ideas have been used and reused for many different blogs who hope to follow in PETA’s impressive footsteps. Their blogs are teeming with information and their writers are extremely knowledgeable on the subject of animal rights and the protection of animals. The authors of these blogs dedicate their time and effort to finding out as much information on animals as possible. Unlike some blogs which are just hobbies of their creators, the authors of PETA’s blogs treat it as something more. They have devoted themselves to the rights of animals and their mission is to make people aware of unknown injustices many animals endure.
PETA definitely has a unique voice. Their blogs are full of loud in-you-face opinions. They are not afraid of stepping on toes and they make sure to get their point across even if they may be a bit overly blunt at times. Although PETA’s brazen style is revered by some it can be viewed as a little too straight forward by others, but there straight forward style is one of the many characteristics that make PETA so unique.
The design of their page is highly navigate-able, which is another feature I like so much about their website. Some blogs are too boring and can not hold your interest, while other blogs are too busy and you can’t tell what it is you are attempting to do. However, with PETA’s blog they forgo the fancy background and letter coloring and keep it simple. PETA’s design doesn’t distract from their blog which some blogs tend to do, but they do keep it visually stimulating with plenty of pictures. Also conveniently placed links to the right make it easy to find different entries; there are even links to blogs that give you vegetarian recipes.
Aside from all the other things that make PETA’s blog a good blog, one of its most favorable attributes is what you take away form the blogs. PETA’s blogs are packed with information. They tell you ways you can incorporate their message of love for animals into your everyday life. Their blog raises an awareness of how poorly some animals are treated. It is clear to see that the goal of PETA’s blog to educate people on animals, because they realize that change and improvement begins with knowledge.
One of the attributes that make blogs so popular is that they never stop growing. New information keeps accumulating especially with all the comments and discussions that are opened up to the public, making a blog like a journey of discovery with friends. PETA’s blog does exactly this with its captivating and bold topics. Although finding a blog that is at the top of its game can be difficult, once you find one it will become one of your most valuable sources for information and entertainment on the topic of your interest.
