Why do you blog

Why do you blog?

If someone asked you why you blog what would you say?

To record my ideas

To share my world

It is my personal diary

But truly why do you blog?

Do you hope to become a writer

Are you a writer already

I have been at it for an year plus and I cannot say why I do it.

It’s just an addictive habit.

The whole bloggin thing includes Blog hoing also known as reading other blogs and commenting

Just to ask you why do you blog?

Not why you started blogging but why do you keep doing it??

We all know that the reasons we started bloggin is no longer what keeps us. In a way KBW has helped me keep blogging.

The truth is some of us didn’t know the word blog came from the word weblog or who even came up with teh idea of blogging. Side bar

  3. I need a vent for some of my frustrations that I can refer to later.
    I get to learn new things from fellow bloggers.

  4. I blog...

    1. To participate/spectate in interesting debates.

    2. To laugh

    3. To tell a joke when it's my turn.

    4. To see whether people laugh at my joke.

    5. To see what other people think about whatever.

    6. To see what people think about what I think.

    7. To "meet" all sorts of interesting people.

    8. To learn.

    9. To be misled.

    10. To mislead.

    11. To stay awake .

    12. To experiment with ideas and thoughts and so on.

    13. Because I enjoy reading.

    14. Because I enjoy writing.

    15. Because I am boring in real life.

    16. Etc.

    In short, I blog to extract as much juice out of life as I can...

  6. It's a medium to say what's on my mind. To put stuff out there. Say how I feel. Let stuff out.

  7. I blog because I can...ok that sounds too Bill Clintonish.

    I try again.

    I blog to share personal experiences which I would not, under ordinary circumstances, share with people I know.

    I guess blogging creates an extension of the little therapeutic space that we all have, but rarely explore.

  8. I blog for myself first of all

    Then to remember

    Then to forget

    Then to share my wisdom and stupidity

    Then to keep my writing skills in check

    And as others have said because I can

    My blog existed before KBW and will

    continue to do so...
