A chance to review...
Rhodes purple knickers is more than a tantalizing title for one’s blog and this caught my eye as it is catchy and cleverly related to Rhodes. The blog is immediately appealing as it is colourful with the only appropriate shade to catch the readers eye; purple. It is not only aesthetically inclined, with a clear amount of hard work that has contributed to a good design, but also very informing, touching on a wide array of topical issues evident in our controversial society.
The majority of blogs that I reviewed, whilst searching for the most interesting, had pictures attached to their posts, which for me is essential in adding that shine needed to capture the reader’s attention, and these bloggers employed this wonderfully. The pictures were related to the issues in the posts and definitely worked effectively. Many posts spoke of the problems faced by the citizens of South Africa hotly debating issues revolved around gender and sex.
Journalists around the world however are constantly drilled with the notion of objectivity as a top priority. I always welcome a feminist perspective as this is needed in our male-dominated culture to recognize challenges faced by females yet the subjectivity of this blog, to say the least is overwhelming.
However, on a whole the blog has complied well with all the requirements expected of modern day bloggers and is written from heart-felt perspectives leaving one with a sense of enlightenment and appreciation.
