Whats a B L O G ? @ 6:52 PM
I was talking with two friends today about how the world of technology and everything has finally caught up with us. One girl, Pacheco, finds no interest in anything to do with the internet, however me and my other friend Abbey have recently found ourselves signing up for all sorts of internet "websites". As of recently we've entered the world of "twitter" and "youtube". They have joined the on going list of things we have signed up for "myspace, facebook,blogspot...ect". Now when we told Pacheco about our "craze", she laughed. Saying something along the lines of "oh god, why twitter and blogspot?". Then Abbey goes "Okay, but blogspot isn't that bad". Then a little stupid thinking on my part what makes blogspot any better than any other thing i've signed up for?. Then the obvious answer came to me as I was downing a cheeseburger:definition of a blog: "A website on which an individual or group of users produces an ongoing narrative"
On twitter.. I cant really have a "free flow of just writing". (eww, that was badly worded). Our thoughts are just mini updates cut down to 160 words. Facebook and Myspace, well putting my thoughts on there...doesn't seem right. Blogspot however, I don't really know who reads my b l o g s. Frankly, I don't really care if no one reads them.. HAHAH, I just need something to write on..Since I dont have a diary, and my entries aren't that personal "blogging" seems best. My blogs are basically just broken thoughts, random things, that I want to remember, or just want to write about. Blogging also, surprisingly, keeps me reelaxedd. Recently, I've been catching myself swearing more, being constantly angry, and constantly being disappointed, both in other people, and myself...for being angry and swearing haha. And as cliche, or lame, or corny as it sounds...actually this whole blog is probably corny as hell... but, once I start writing, doesn't matter about what, I chiillll out.
...metacognition look it up, good word:)
