Q. What style is appropriate to address Prof. Santoy as opposed to a style for students?
A. Because Prof. Santoy is our superior it would be appropriate to address in a more formal respectful manner as if we were addressing our boss. Students are our fellow peers so it is acceptable if we address them in a more casual manner.
Q. What are the style or form differences of a blog versus a microblog like Twitter?
A. In a blog you have a relatively infinite amount of space to discuss your topic. You can express it in whatever manner you so please. You have the freedom to control your design layout, and how you text will be presented to your readers. However, in a microblog you have a limited number of characters (usually 140) to work with. this means you must address your point immediately and do so in a way that will capture your audience's interest. Also, you are limited to the layout contraints determed by the microblog hosting server.
Q. What do you think of genres, such as memos? Are they easy or hard to write?
A. I find memos to be an easier genre to write because they can be less formal and complex as other business documents. They are a convenient way to express your message and relay important information.

I have to agree with the way we address our instructor, shes our superior and we must show her respect for it. And i also agree with the memos they are much simple to write and are straight to the point and you can express your ideas in more detail in a blog rather than a micro-blog.
