WHY BLOGS

This blogging industry is not that old..Probably celebrated its 7th or 10th birthday, to be vague. But the boom that it has seen puts our economic growth to shame, even though it does form a teensy bit of a part in it.

People may not be sociable always, but we cannot deny the fact that man is social. He needs to interact, to talk, to share, to listen, to appreciate and be valued. It is his position in others’ lives , that forms the basis of his everyday life – most of his actions, beliefs and his mental makeup.

Social networking sites give you a platform to share bits and pieces of your life on display- what you feel at the moment (not more than 140 characters, including spaces !) , what you wore at a friend’s birthday, what that friend wore and who liked whose outfit..

To people who have more to say than that, who don’t feel its enough just to express your mood in two lines, who like to express their opinions along with the explanation of their origin and bases behind those thoughts, and most importantly who would love it if you had something to say about their views, be it trashing their ideas on a public portal, so that they can prove their point again; or people who just want to showcase their world of talent to others, however small that be; blogs are God’s greatest gifts to them, running a close third after mothers and oxygen.

Its my turf, I am the master of this little space, I decide what can be published where and what is just too simple to be worthy of a space like this.. If this were RUNWAY I would be Miranda Priestly.. This little blog might not be even close to that million dollar magazine yet, but I would always cherish it just the same, its my baby, the product of my imagination,.

Some lunatic who just had to have a paper and pen .. or in today’s scenario, a monitor , a modem and a working keyboard; to be lost in his own little world, would have created blogs, our very own little pieces of paper, only they don’t involve killing of trees or the fact that papers and ink run out..if the space on these blog sites is endless, so are my ideas.

Its going to be tough fight 

cheers!
