Blogs and Blogging

2006 August 9

Since there are  a bagillion blogs already, I know the world is on fire for yet another, so here I am. Okay, so the earth didn’t stand still on that announcement no doubt. But still, you have to admit that having a blog gives you a sense of power or control or…something. At least it’s one place for sure that you know you will be the boss.

Boss of what? Perhaps nothing. Perhaps no one will come to the party and play. After all the decorating, cake-baking and party-pop popping… But who cares?

I mean, originally, didn’t these things start as online journals. Here we were just wanting to jot down our innermost thoughts. Our deepest secret feelings about life and the world around us? Right? Then, how the hell did it become blog-o-journalism. Pajamas Media. My Space. Your Space. In Your Face. Blah, blah, blah.

Truth is, nobody knows. We all started talking and then other people just sort of showed up and started talking back. I like it. Personally, I like it a lot.

If you come by – say something for pity sake! Nothing worse than being the only one at the dance.

    I wrote the first comment!
    I don’t think that’s ever happened before.
    I do agree, WC
    There is a sense of power in blogging.
    Just wait. It is more addicting that you ever would have thought. Just ask my wife. Or Fuzz.
    I’m wearing the biggest happy hat right now…
    The best of luck here, kiddo.

    Yay for Mikey! Thank you for that first comment… You’re wearing the happy hat, doing the happy dance – you a happy dude. ;)

    No messing round here, as soon as I heard the news, I was over here, had you blogrolled before the page even loaded :) Also gave you a little plug on my latest post. We must have been writing simultaneously from different sides of the world, you have another post up now!!
    Cheers, Kelly

    Thanks Kel, I really appreciate your support. And I saw your little plug just now. That’s great. Hope I don’t let anybody down. Oy, the pressure. LOL.

    Damn good to see you posting on a blog of your own. It was about time.

    Aw thanks, Evyl. But I think it’s only been about a week or two since I finished off at Mike’s. The blog-o-sphere moves fast, eh?
