I dont have a blog other than these articles on www.blog.m6.net which is the blog site of the company that I work for. Ive started a few, same as Ive started to keep a diary a few times, but I just dont stick with them. Perhaps deep down I doubt anyone cares about my day-to-day life, and Im not anxious to post my deep and intense innermost feelings. I dont wear my heart on my sleeve, and I dont want to post it on the Internet.
However, for those of a blogger bent who want to share their lives with others, its an excellent idea. You can share your life with the world, letting people on other continents know what its like to live where you live, and what its like to be who you are. Blogs are good for non-bloggers too, letting people on the other side of an issue, or a war, or the planet, read about what life is like on your side. A few years ago I met a woman with a terrible secret which sounded like some insane conspiracy theory. I tried to organize a blog for her since she wanted to share her information, and because I wanted to hear about any further developments. Sadly, I was unable to set it up that day and subsequently lost touch with her.
Oddly enough, blogs...
