We're not the most interesting people ("we" meaning bloggers in general) but if we can tell a good story... then we're gold. ;) The key to success for every blog (or microblog) is straddling the line between writing about oneself and writing interesting stories.

I mean, who REALLY cares what you're thinking every second of the day? But now I love it. I care! I follow people who I know/like, so I care what they think. I'm also narcissistic enough to think that people care what I have to say. :P People apparently care what I have to say on a larger scale (my blog), because I have quite a few subscribers and get a nice amount of comments per post.

People assume that others CARE about what they post on their status/twitter, which can be annoying and totally wrong. I try to use these venues for organizing gettogethers, linking funny things, or sharing thoughts I think people might actually be able to give opinions/responses to. I think blogging is a difficult concept for non-bloggers to grasp. I think you’re right on all accounts.

Blog Blog Blog (pronounced like "Blah Blah Blah", lol) so we can really examine blogging. I'm a blogger, so I understand blogging, but I find it difficult to explain to my friends. But, whatever, I have my small slice of e-fame, so I am happy. :D Everyone is just SO into blogging about blogging these days. ;) I think we should start something like… Blog Blog Blog (pronounced like “Blah Blah Blah”, lol) so we can really examine blogging.
