Pictures are important to use in a blog as it breaks up the constant form of writing. It captures the eye, adds a sense of creativity and appeals to those people who are visual spatial learners.

Games make the blog fun, interesting, creative and ensure that people have fun on your blog. There’s nothing more boring than going to find information and finding nothing but constant writing. The use of games also makes it interactive and enjoyable while the searcher can still find their information. Games are also able to appeal to all the multiple intelligences rather than just a few; everyone’s accounted for. Nothing more exciting than amusement from a game.

Video clips help for entertaining and making the blog more interesting. As the site contains movement, sound and a different form of gaining information than just reading people feel interested and engaged when they can sit and relax and watched film clips relating to their information or their interest rather than needing to constantly read. It just a bit of creative flare
