Blogs..

For being a blogger myself, I guess I read very few blogs. Hardly any to be honest. But today my colleague and I started talking about blogs and why people read/write them. That made me surf around a bit and made me end up reading some blogs I haven't visited at all before. Some by people I know a bit and other by "celebrities" or wannabe-celebrities. Some by people my own age but the ones that really opened up a new world to me were the ones by teenagers. It is definetly a different world, although I can still recognise parts of it from my own youth. The only difference is that we might have written those rather pathetic poems and "philosophic" reflextions in a diary that we kept locked and stoved away somewhere secret. The pictures they post are definitly very different and making them more open and public don't make it all better I promise. However I wonder if making them public at all, really is a good idea for the writer. I wonder if those rather small and average problems don't actually get bigger and more permanent this way... But that is on the other hand just an other unscientific reflection.

More obvious is however how many really bad and uninteresting blogs there are out there! I wonder who can be intereseted in most of them. It also makes me seriously consider killing this blog. Or maybe just admit that I am just as pathetic as all the others...
