... Why I Have Never Blogged Before...

As someone who studied New Media at University, I've always learnt and written about the magic of web 2.0 and the way it connects us. Yet for some strange reason I never took the time to start up my own blog and be part of it all.


Well... times have changed! You're now reading what will maybe sometime soon in the near or distant or unimagined future, become an internet hit. Ok, so probably not, but it'll give me somewhere to expell all of the weird and wonderful thoughts and observations currently clogging up my wee mind.


So why have I started this blog? And what will it contain? And will I actually keep it alive?


The main purpose of Suze Reviews (catchy eh) is to ramble on about funny media events/ads/news stories, in a way that doesnt distract half of my office.


I'm going to try my best to report daily on BBC News 'Most Popular Now' section which always seems to rank stories such as shapeshifting robber goats higher than current affairs such as the fun in the Middle East. (This is what sparked me to blog on this erractic and amusing news tool.)



Also, as someone who aspires to become part of the fast-paced, exciting advertising industry, I felt it was about time i stopped reading other bloggers' reviews of the newest ad campaigns, and started my own. It's an industry I am dying to break into, and the hours I've spent on grad applications and interview prep hasnt yet led to any concrete job offers, so maybe taking a pro-active and visible approach to Adland will help me on my way!


So enjoy what maybe, hopefully, *definately* will become an interesting look into media madness!
