One of the greatest things about the growing popularity of the Internet is that it allows virtually anyone to share their creations, opinions, and talents. It doesn't take a whole lot of money to start your own website, and depending on who you know and how well you market yourself, it doesn't take too much time to gain a little popularity.
The Internet is a dream come true for those who thrive on information. Magazines have been said to market themselves to very unique and particular audiences, creating a readership that will be loyal and consistent. Well, the internet takes this theory of specified marketing a whole step further with user based content. You'll see new sites and blogs popping up nearly every day containing information about nearly every subject under the sun.
"How does this benefit me," you may ask? Well, there's more content coming at you, more conveniently, from many different sources.
One such site is the fast-growing blog site "theRADreport.com."
Created towards the beginning of September '06, theRadreport reports on current fashion trends, rock n' roll news, and celebrity gossip.
Founder, and current SJSU student, Eddie DaRoza describes the site: "Rad is a hard thing to pinpoint. What is rad today might be lame tomorrow. Media, culture, California: here is rad from the youth perspective."
The increasingly popular sight provides unique perspectives on news ranging from Paris Hilton's pot obsession to recently created rock star group, Supernova. There really is no limit to what you might come across on this site. One of it's hugest advantages over more mainstream blog sites is that there's nothing controlling or censoring what is or isn't posted on the page.
It's new creations like theRadreport that provide news and information that many twenty somethings find more relevant for their lifestyle than most other sources. Sure we'll still watch the news and glance at the paper from time to time, but when we're bored of the same old stuff, we'll log on to see... "What's rad today?"
