we are troubled and just the same
its amazing how fast technology runs and changes, and how, these days when it rules our lives, it has become to mean something far more important and personal- that now people will fight to defend their beliefs or understandings: was reading about ideas and opinions on what blogs are on say-so today; incredible how angry or defensive people get about these things- and how divided the arguments become- either you love it and will support its honour to the death or its shit and you hate it completely. how doe the world have to be divided into fucking black and white all the time. who cares whether you have a blog or not, and what it means to you or others- i find it such a strange experience documenting my daily life here, and still dont really believe that other people can read this and comment on my life. i know its incredibly personal, but that is how i live my life, by not expose that- especially when this was created to be a personal insight and document for jon. so yeah it is personal- so many people seem to be angry that blogs are personal- so many people react to dooce's personal comments about her life: who cares! then dont read it, move on. its all crap anyway, so why get weird about it all.
this was the best comment i thought was said about blogs- think its pretty reflective on how i feel:
"[a blog is] whatever you want it to be. Blogs are made up of individual posts that are archived, becoming part of a stream of information. They are usually grouped either by author, date, or subject. The best blogs are those in which individual posts can stand on their own, yet when put together become more than the sum of their parts. The process of publishing online invites a certain amount of interaction with readers. Incoming and outgoing links connect the blog to the rest of the web. This loose format becomes the basis of what is widely accepted as a blog. Blogs evolve over time. Although I started blogging to update family and friends on what was happening in my life, my blog has evolved into something much more. It is a record of my life, serving as a creative outlet for me right now and preserving stories and photos for my children in the future."
strange to think that the crap i write today, is archieved and acts as a record of me and how i am now. huh. god i dont to read this shit later in life- haha at least it'll make me laugh at how silly and ridiculous i am.
