Not that we don't have an excess of blogs out there, but I have revised my previously snobbish viewpoint about blogging, which was this: blogs are a pointless display of internet preening that may people would be better off walking away from, and should choose instead to invest their time in a good bible study, or perhaps some space-saving, closet hydroponic vegetable gardening.
I now think blogging is like government education to the Democrats -- everyone should suffer under one, I mean, everyone deserves one, and even if you've never blogged before, you can and should give it a try. On the palest end of the spectrum, it's interesting, and at the darkest, deepest end, it can become a nearly life-sucking obsession, but you don't have to let it get that far. Temperance is as much of a virtue as patience.
If you would like a blog, but don't know what the heck to do to get one started -- trust me -- there's more to it than just writing it -- you might want to take this blog writing course. This eight week course is a hands-on, simple way to learn about blogging, and even the most dense of doofi can get a healthy little blog going in just a few short weeks, as well as learn the finer points of blog promotion and social networking. It also gives you a built-in group of peers who will read your stuff and help you feel like you are not writing in a vacuum.
I'm not advertising this course for personal gain. I took it and it helped me. Look what a blogger I am!
