I am just contemplating why people blog. Is it the new way of writing a diary? But the point of a diary surely is that it is a private thing and no-one else reads it. And that certainly isn't the point of a blog. But then probably no-one will read this! Unless I post on facebook with the URL. And I don't know that I have enough confidence in the interest people would have in my random thoughts to do that. And if nobody reads a blog then I might as well do an online diary that only I can read. Is my argument going round in circles? So after advice from people on facebook i will now post the link to it.
On another subject, I was playing with the new nintendo 3ds today at Braehead. It was fun, and if you were looking for a handheld console it is very good. But quite expensive and the screen is small. The 3d effect is brilliant. And you can make a Mii from a picture of yourself! Fun.
That's a good way to start. Just see what happens and write about it. It's not a bad thing keeping an on-line diary. Perhaps it could be a form of "spiritual journal". That sounds like a quote from another famous diary.
ReplyDeleteBut I write different things if people are going to read it. So it isn't an online diary. Its a place for thoughts and discussion. Diaries are by nature private things. My online diary is a totally different thing and is only for me to read. That is why nobody knows where it is!
