QUOTE
No Man Is An Island.

The Need to communicate is an innate desire of human’s and was born with us.

Man being a Social Animal, is blessed with the power to think, Communicate, And Express

These are the things that distinguish him from Animals giving him the tag of being the cleverest being.

No matter how much we boast that we are totally independent, we still have this Dependency hidden deep inside the darkest corners of our heart.

It isn’t that we are totally naïve to the society; the thing is that we do need a source, a person near and dear or maybe not, to communicate our things to someone, to share our joy and sorrow

We cannot just gulp our piece of emotions on our own

The same thing is with what we want to express

Yes, We don’t have any freedom to murder someone, or commit a crime

But of course we still have freedom to express what we want, our needs, and our feelings

Blogs , the revolutionary creation of some wise person is the medium via which we can express what we want to portray to the society and to the mass.

Blog is the short term for web log, a website that one can keep as a diary

We aren’t born News reporters, nor we are scholars

But as they say, even the smallest spark can set fire resulting in explosions.

Rather without a shadow on doubt, blogs have become a necessity in our lives

Yes, People do write personal diaries, but on the contrary what is the harm in sharing it with the world around.

I do remember the time when, blogs were banned from India, but then people protested against it and the ban was lifted

True with that, People are the ones who make the government, and with that they can even shake it.

And yes, am too possessive about it! There are many around like me, as they find it as a part of their lives. We do hop on other blogs, with time gather knowledge as to what is this globe all about, and what do others think

And yes without a doubt, it is a great means to Engulf more knowledge and to even share yours with others

Personal blogs can be effective means for people to promote themselves and their interests, and some people find them to be psychologically fulfilling tools for self-expression and satisfaction.

To conclude I would just say, that few years ago, there was nothing like a “blog” but as of now they have become very influential components of our lives as well as the Internet, and their importance is growing exponentially

I have a blog. I'd love to post in it more, but it never recieves any feedback, so it just feels like I'm talking to myself or a brick wall, you know?

It takes some time, but if you truly enjoy blogging, stay with it. Advertise yourself; join networks; tell your friends! Even submitting to Digg won't hurt -- if your posts are worthwhile, they'll really take hold wherever you let them travel. It's taken me about two-and-a-half years to get to where I am now, where people actually know me online, but I took every available opportunity and I'm now very comfortably exactly where I want to be.

Good luck to you! Don't give up on it!

See, that's entirely the wrong attitude to have about it. If you have any passion for writing, discourse, commentary, or simply social behavior (we're human, face it), you're going to enjoy blogging. If you're in it for the money, give it up. There's no real instant success in the field of blogging and I feel that services such as ReviewMe and the division of TLA that accomplishes the same thing taints an otherwise awesome establishment. I'm a blogger, and the freedom to express myself online, by my terms, is exhilarating. But then, for every one of me, there's ten of you who feel there'es only one side to blogging -- money. Just...ugh...don't! If you're in it for money, you can't just strike it lucky. You have to establish yourself, update regularly, produce good valued content, advertise advertise advertise, and get readers. Of course, popularity without interest for the sake of popularity is absolutely empty in value. Money without dedication is a scam. If you have true passion, you blog without discretion. That's how you get popularity and money -- by then, you won't even care. That's the beauty of blogging.

I used to blog but no one came to see it. Then I started blogging on other services so you could post your blog about some news and everyone who looked at the news could visit the blogs and then mine came more popular. biggrin.gif Now I'm still blogging.

Well blogging is great, but I've always felt the need to create my own blog on my own site. If anyone knows of a good free php system or code that i could use for making a blog on my css website, please let me know! I'd be very greatfull..

I think that most people doesn't blog, because they fell like they are talking to someone, but because they are acctually making some sort of online diary and that is the primary usage of blog systems - the freedom of free expression...

Try cutephp. its completely customisable and only really generates the text code inside divs. all of which is changable. you can add a class or id to the div that is automatically generated to get it to fit with your css biggrin.gif
Its very nice give it a go.

I used to have a blog, but I stopped writing in it because of the lack of responses. Perhaps I only wanted to get attention so since it didn't work, I stopped. :S
