Dotcomslashblog: Kill All Memes, Except…

  • Smaran · 3 years ago
    You have no family? Explain.

    Effing noobs! /me laughs out loud
    Exact same thing happens with my friends. They either doon't get blogging or never seem to remember I have on of those blobs.. uh.. blogs.

    Blogging does sharpen your articulation skills.

    And yes, I prefer even 3 comments over 2000 hits. If I do get 2000 hits, they'll probably be from a bunch mindless 14 year old Americans who've nothing better to do than surf around digg.com all day.

    You got that right, "what the f*ck is blobbing... blogging... whatever?"

    Death to MySpace! Their blogs aren't real ones :-P

    I really enjoyed this post and your answers. I have a kinky sense of humour and both yours and chana's made me laugh. Thanks for that.

    When I first began blogging in April I wrote on my About page: "I have had a life long passion for writing so blogging seemed like a natural choice for me. My friends can't fathom for a moment my cyber world attraction and my connectedness to blogging and frankly, I don't care. I consider the blogosphere to be my "community" as much as the local community I live in is. I consider the universe and all who are in it to be my community - all my relations."

    After trying to explain why I blogged to a friend in July I blogged on this same topic again http://coyote.daria.be/2006/07/22/blogging-the-...

    Those who don't blog are those who haven't been infected - yet. ;)

    You know, every one should have family, so I volunteer as your cyber sister, OK? But be aware of that I can be an annoying teasing sister from time to time... *lol*

    Hm. My friends really don't understand this blogging thing ether. I wonder why? Are we bloggers special somehow? I don't get it, blogging is such fun, why don't they think that?

    But the whole blogosphere is too big. I could sit here for ever and discover new blogs. Problem is that I don't like all of them and the sorting out work is going too slowly....

    About MySpace:

    I guess it's a lot of beginners there, because they often have such cluttered blogs. Either that or they must have brain damages. Surely no one can stand the look of a page FULL of different blinking pictures with some unreadable text on top of that? I've seen horrible examples that almost made me blind...

    And, the worst: I've captured a lot of MySpace'r hotlinking to pictures on my blog, stealing bandwidth of me that I'm paying money for! I hate that. I haven't found a fully satisfying method to stop them yet, but I do fight them in different ways. Arrrgh.

    I hate to hate, so I really hate them ;-)

    Whoa, lotsa stuff here!

    :-)

    Smaran, you got it entirely and we're on the same level. You know. ;-)

    Chana, your kind words keep being an inspiration to me. For photographing stuff, or for keeping to write the nonsense I do. Thanks.

    Coyote, you are a mischievous and quirky blogger and I thank you for that. This is wat I wrote as a comment to that post (for the others' sake):

    "Thanks for directing me to this. Poignant writing and important questions, all written up concisely and with ample of wit. This may be one of the better posts around."

    Mrs. L, your comments are like the joys of heaven to me and you can be my bloggy sister anytime you want – don't expect me to behave like a good brother, though.

    And, yes, it's a big and complicated place. True bloggers look for style and content – we are a like a breed apart. Brain damage might just well describe these others ;-) Get that bandwidth thingy sorted and remain the wily wonderful blogger you are after that!

    N.

    LoL. Agreed.
    DEATH to Myspace.
    It seems more like a profile thing than a blog.
