Questions from "Purpose, Audience, Genre"

1. What style is appropriate to address Prof. Santoy as opposed to a style for students?
The way we address Pro. Santoy compare to students is much different, one because she our professor so we must show her respect and two because she is like a boss, whatever she saids goes. She is the principal authority.
2. What are the style or form differences of a blog versus a microblog like Twitter?
In a blog you can write as much as you want and it will still post it. You can design your on blog the way you want it. In a microblog you are limited in what you say and you have to get your point across in little words and you cannot design your own blog.
3. What do you think of genres, such as memos? Are they easy or hard to write?
I see memos as text messages, you can be who you want to when you write a memo, you do not have to be all formal as you would with a professional document.
