'"Stephanie O’Brian, a senior at Rock Bridge High School, said she tries to write in her blog at least once a day.
Among teenagers, she’s not alone.
A recent study out of the Pew Internet and American Life Project, an initiative of the Pew Research Center that focuses its studies on the impact of the Internet, found 57 percent of online teens can be considered “content creators.”
The study says content creators are “online teens who have created or worked on a blog or Web page, shared original creative content or remixed content they found online into a new creation.”
O’Brian is one of about 4 million people — that’s 19 percent of online 12- to 17-year-olds — who have created a blog, according to the study."
Many news sites move articles into data bases after a period of time and then offer them for sale, in the process changing the URLs that link to them. Or they require registration. Thus, we provide a link to the front page of the news website and the information necessary to find the story on that site, rather than a direct link to the article.
