Why do people blog?
What IS a blog in its first place??

Some say, its just an online daily diary..

Ok, then why would anyone like the entire world to read his personal page?

Some say, its a platform to express your views..

And as the legend goes, theres no credibility on blogs, so whats the point of wasting some time every day doing research on current affairs or anything for that matter only to be regarded as "worthless" in a matter of minutes??

Some more say, its a way to vent out daily frustrations..

As long as it makes another human life a less miserable, seems ok...
But still, why BLOG of all the things??
Play, listen to music, watch a movie...

What is it in a blog that everyone seems to be crazy about??

Its the latest fad these days..
Those without a blog id are looked upon as prehistoric..
Everyone everywhere is talking about it..

And a fad is nothing but an orgasm..
It builds up, reaches a peak and dies down...

Same here...

More than 90% of the IDs in circulation on the moment wouldnt be in use for more than a year atleast..
About the same number of users would have forgotton their IDs also...

I can bet my life on it...

My knowledge over the content might be limited but I also heard blogs are an excellent means of building "public relations", 'business relations" etc..
Another dimension to already exisitng means of building relations???
Any takers??

Then there are a few which poses queries over the web..
And I thought, there are online forums for that all this while...

Informatory, travel blogs !!!
Again, the relevance???
As in, whats important for me, could be useless for other..
What I like on my holiday, might suck for someone else..

Its all upto us how much we believe the content served to us..
We believe, the writer to be sensible enough to be giving an honest opinion over the web..
Isnt it too much of a risk?
I mean when there are more credible resources available for research, why rely on blog?
They might be true..
But what if they arent??
What if theres just ONE wrong blog..
And what if YOU happen to be the one rederring it???

Why am I being so sadist?
Why am I being so anti blogging???

No I am not...
After all I do scribble some bullshit every day..

Someone just asked, why do people blog?
And none of my answers, went down well with him..

Anyone out here in the blogosphere, who might be reading this is most welcome to pour in some food for thought...
I just need ONE good answer to shut the asshole up..

Just one !!!
