From Blogs to the Theaters Near You

Julie and Julia is a pleasant movie about cooking, blogging, and connecting. It is based on real people and life stories. I have watched it over the summer and thought about it for a while, from an MTS perspective.

Julie Powel creates a personal blog to start the Julie/Julia Project. Her blog becomes a way to connect with Julia Child (an amazing woman who introduced French cooking to America), with her many followers, and with herself.

When you are writing a blog, like Julie Powell's personal blog, you are opening your diary to the world. It is not only a matter of writing consistently, or using a personal language, or walking your followers through a goal with you. I think it is the combination of all. People have commented on her posting and Julie Powell developed a relationship with and care for all the strangers who were thinking about her once in a while.
