The Blog Phenomenom
Published March 14th, 2006 in , , .Over the past few days and weeks, a number of friends have jumped on what Jon Stewart calls ‘The Blogwagon’. (Whereas me, I’m OldSkol… being doing this since November!) Anyway, here’s a cool little clip from The Daily Show about blogs. The clip can be found here, courtesy of Skippy, the Bush Kangaroo.
I think its really great that so many people are getting online and creating their own “online communities”. Don’t you agree? By the way, the Blogwagen hasn’t even really started in Europe and other regions around the world… so the blogwagen is only just starting…
The Blog Phenomenom : The newest trend for nerds?
What ever happened to meeting up for a coffee and a chat? Seems like these days people are finding it hard to communicate without the privacy of closed in walls and a blinking computer screen.
I’m wondering if everyone has gotten scared that they don’t have a delay to think of a witty comment straight up, during face to face conversation??
As a lover of constant chit chat without the hindrence of stalling for breath, I find our online communities slightly eerie.
Now please excuse me, I must find a stranger to chat to before I die of loneliness…
Funny with all the anti-blog comments, that you still find yourself online, continuously scrolling through the blogosphere to satisfy your insatiable apetite to read someone else’s idle thoughts!
There is nothing wrong with meeting up for a coffee to chat, nor are online communities just excuses for witty comments, but tell me the last time you had your face-to-face message, told to a friend at Cafe Doppio in Melboure find readership in every corner of the globe.
