Blogging...or why I would rather make a website.

Blogging

I will be the first to admit that I think the idea of Blogging is a waste of time.  In a world where we are constantly connected via every social network available, creating a blog seems redundant.  I seldom find things on the internet interesting enough to write a full blog about them.  As you can tell, I am currently writing a blog, but it is under duress.  Grades and the like dictate my current course of action.

This spectacle of blogging is a surreal thing, that carries no real substance.  I could never use a quoted blog in a collegiate paper, and if I want to know what someone is thinking about I will ask them.  I would have much rather created a website, at least that is culturally interesting, relevant and useful.  This is a gigantic waste of energy.

I will also admit that I am trying to make up for 16 weeks of blogs in a couple of days, this will no doubt temper my attitude towards blogging and not in a good way.  So thus I begin my "blog" and I will try to make it meaningful but if it degrades into offhanded comments about sea squids and puppies please let me know.
