Be a Responsible Blogger

Okay, you have set yourself up with a blog. Good for you.

Your own blog allows you to write about anything you want - You can write about stuff that inspires you or write about things that make you mad or people who make your life alittle better. You can write about life experiences that made you laugh, cry, or scream out with anger and frustration.

A blog is a great way to blow off steam and keep a public journal for all to see. A blog can be a cathartic experience and besides, it's fun to share a glimpse of your life with other people. Truly it gives new meaning to, "My Life is an Open Book."

I enjoy linking to other peoples blogs - friends, family, acqaintances - and then link to their "favorite" people. It's fun to see all the beauty, happiness, and folly that makes up the lives of people all over the world.

Most blogs are funny, fun, and drip with sarcasm. Some are downright clever and beautiful in the way their home pages are constructed. I love seeing pictures of the people who are blogging - it makes them human. Pictures are always cool.

So what do I mean by "Be a Responsible Blogger?" What do you think I mean?

If you have committed to setting up a blog, commit to updating on a frequent basis. Indeed life can be downright overwhelming some days and you think to yourself, "there just isn't enough time to squeeze in a decent blog post," but seriously - aren't the days you are so busy and overwhelmed with life the very best days to blog for a few minutes? No doubt your day was full of adventure, drama, hilarity and life experience.... Surely something memorable can be typed in for a few minutes. Huh? Yeah?

I notice that some blogs have not been updated for weeks or months....this makes me sad since there are many people I want to silently "drop in" to see how they are doing. J-Dog, you haven't posted a blog since October. Dest....it's been almost 2 months. Surely your wedding preparations have produced stories to share that will bust our sides with laughter. Get going girl.

So get posting people. Your fans need to hear from you.
