Week #6- Professional Blogger

So this week i looked over a bunch of different bloggers websites, i tried to focus on ones that related as directly as possible to my idea, so i was looking into technology based blogs, focusing mainly on apple software and hardware, including, but not limited to the applications. I stumbled across a lot of very interesting blogs, however the one that interested me most was called www.9to5mac.com
The reason i chose this blog is because it looked at my topic of interest in three main ways; The hardware aspect of Apple, the software aspect of Apple, and then it looked at both from a user's point of view, so while the first two aspects focused heavily on techie aspects of apple's products, the third aspect broke down to layman's terms common problems, solutions and some tips and tricks that everyone can do, really expanding the possible audience, from a select group of techies to a more general audience.
This blog was helpful as it provided key news on apple products, like release dates, common problems, and general issues that i could look out for when creating my app.
I think this blog could use less content about related sites and about the company profile of Apple, as it spends some time looking at graphs of sales figures and generally looking at the company, rather than the products. I think people who visit this blog will be more interested in the physical products than how the company's stocks are doing.
