Have any of you heard of this blog site? Are any of you on it? I LOVE it! Mark Lee from Third Day posted about it so I checked it out and it's SOOOOO easy! In about 30 seconds I had 3 pictures and a text blog posted! It takes me about 3 MINUTES to do just that on other blogs! Anyways, I just thought I'd let yall know about it :) Check it out!

The cool thing is that there are no comments so you don't have to spend all your time going through them! And there's no way to search for other members so people can only follow you if they know your s/n, or if someone with too much time on their hands sits there and types in a bunch of random stuff and happens to guess your s/n.

So, just being sleep deprived here, but what's the use of a blog if no one reads it or rants or whatever? I'm not trying to be be mean, but I thought that was at least part of what blogs are all about. Then again, I never got into therm. I've got one somewhere, but the only time I add anything to it is when I get an email with news from the site, and even then, not all that often.

No offense taken ;)
One instance I can recall is from a few years back. My friends had never really been regular commentors on my site, but I wrote one particular blog simply to let off steam and ended up with a string of comments. Suddenly my friends and random people I don't even know were commenting and ended up arguing with me and with the other commentors. I finally had to delete the post because it got out of hand. But with sites like this, its just like having a private diary you write in every night....not that it's that private, but that it's intended for you, and only you....you're not looking for comments or feedback....just wanting to share things or get things off your mind. If you're looking for comments and feedback, this definitely isn't the site for you!

I subscribe to several blogs using Mozilla thunderbirds RSS reader. That is where I get all of my emails too. I use wordpress.org for blogging though.
