A Paragraph with Parameters
While it is possible blogs could unite colleagues, it seems blogs are entirely too personal to be significant in any other respect. Many people have said they like mathematics and numbers because they are a universal language, something that everyone can understand no matter what cultural background. Aside from religious contradictions, many physics concepts are thought of in the same way because laws are found to be proven facts, not wavering interpretations. There are universal beliefs that are not swayed by cultural background. This leaves the study free from personal bias most of the time because personal agendas are not present. The blog, however, is designed completely on the whims of the author. No blog I have read so far has failed to entertain the beliefs and bias of the author even when attempting to remain neutral in the beginning. This personal aspect of the blog takes away from the meaning of the blog in the academic sense. In any field of science, bias presents a severe problem when considering the validity of the claims and in most cases researcher take special care to leave out this bias. Yet, in blogs people most often do not try to write without bias. Until blogs are written without personal beliefs influencing them, the information posted that is relevant to the field, in many cases, cannot be trusted.
