First Wikipedia Edit

The Wikipedia article I contributed to was "Conestoga High School". I selected this article to edit because I attended Conestoga for all of my high school years, so I feel that I am a valid source of information for the topic. The first addition I made to the article was a correction of the school colors. The article orginally stated that the school's colors were garnet and gray. However, white is one of Conestoga's colors as well, so I added it in. The article also contains a list of the universities that the class of 2006 chose to attend. I added Carnegie Melon University, Villanova University, and Drexel University to the list. My source of information was a few girls who were in the class of 2006 with whom I grew close to from sports.

Purpose of Blog

Now that I have introduced myself, I would like to explain the purpose of this blog. I am currently enrolled in a class called Information Technology Applications in Marketing, which is a requirement for all marketing majors at the university. This blog is one of the course's projects. Throughout the semester, I will be posting weekly on topics such as content from the course and edits of Wikipedia articles. I hope this blogging experience will help me to understand why blogs are a necessity for businesses.

Here is the class blog.
