This slideshow of ways bloggers have street cred proves that Internet-savvy computer addicts aren't all nerds.
From tattoos for bloggers to blogger calendar models, Pulitzer Prizes, retail window displays, scholarships, niche nightlife, and gang signs, these articles prove how bloggers have street cred in pop culture.
Implications - Blogs are quickly becoming the prime source of entertainment for the digitized consumer. In the age of social networking, a blog is a great way to express oneself on a more one-sided scale, allowing a blogger to speak unabashedly while still receiving feedback from readers. Not only do blogs allow for self expression, they are an affordable, easy way to communicate with an audience.
