The real reason why I blog

After rereading my first post, i conclude that was all too much poetic.
Of course i would love to get paid.

Besides that, i started blogging for two other reasons. First i was late into the online social movement. Its not that i was never online, but today kids online time is around Facebook and mySpace. I for one was more into forums for communication. So with people going off to school, and losing contact with friends, i caved in and got a Facebook account. I took it a step further and started to blog. Blogging allows me to express my self, share things that may interest others and lastly i hope this will make me a better writer.

That is more of an accurate reason why i blog.

================================
Update from the writer:
================================
+ Yesterday i spent quite some time online trying to learn JS; I gave up, very hard, and poorly supported docs.

Why we blog?

The idea of a blog is so far vast and abstract, yet we all think we know what one is. My idea can be very different then the guy next to me and his is different then the girls next to him, sipping down another four dollar coffee. But the tech world fell in love with the term "blog", so much so it becomes common knowledge and recognized by all. Even the most computer illiterate soccer mom or waitress, still makes the time to push out a weekly article. Even stranger are the pro blogers, not the person but the carrier. Getting paid to write a personal diary is just too much.

Because of this I feel as the author, I should personally address the purpose of writing this blog, but frankly I'm still not quite sure. I have ideas, I want to run with; my mind can spool them up, now I just want to throw them down. Essentially it will become a personal diary, of thoughts and opinion. Don't be surprised to see topics on subjects all over the place, from review of products, to rant on life, or an upcoming project.

More I write, more I'm unsure what really makes a blog a blog, or how to write a good one. This is going to be, a working art, so old on and come for a ride into My World.
