Interesting?....Or AWESOME- ting?

Web logging, or blogging, as it more popularly called, is a growing art.

What once was the world of online journals, and then the place for writers to show off their talent, and then a place to celebrate the daily short message, picture, or video; is now being used by businesses. Everyone who is anyone has a blog. Even if they don't USE it, they still have a PLACE for it on their website.

I spent the past hour and a half reading my subscribed blogs (hooray for RSS feeds!), and checking out new blogs (and adding them to the RSS feed). I strongly believe that in order to become a stronger, better writer, you need to READ.

Multiple writers.

Multiple genres.

Multiple subjects.

Multiple media.

And blogs are one of my favorite media to read...and write.

I was so quiet for the past hour that Matt kept asking what I was doing. I usually am doing whatever I'm doing, and partially paying attention to his video game. I'm sure it was out of the ordinary when he didn't hear a peep from me.

I tried to explain blogging to him, but he doesn't get it. Oh well. You can't love everything.

Here's the thing. I was doing more than having fun. I was finding blogs that would help me at my new job at Rocket Media! I was bettering myself! I was learning!

So in this ironic blog- about- blogging, I reaffirm my love of the Blogosphere.
