Modalities meet blogging

All types of writing incorporate different types of modalities, depending on the genre. When looking over my process blog, I use the textual modality, whereas my Enthusiast Blog, Ciao Italia, includes animation as well textual modalities. Blogs are a multimodal writing platform and it is possible, as well as beneficial, to include multiple types of modalities. After examining my blog, I wish to utilize and experiment with different types, to give posts and thoughts more meaning. 

The ability to communicate through multiple modes such as pictures and text is a strength, especially for the online writing genre. Pictures have the ability to make or break a piece of writing. While surfing the web, a simple picture or text can capture the viewers eye. The text has the ability to gain interest. In this sense, pictures and text work harmoniously hand in hand.
