Blogging Revolution

Blogging has revolutionized the mode of how people express themselves. In the era of high technology and digital information, messages are able to be passed effectively beyond borders and barriers, both political barriers and individual mind barriers.

Blog aggregator, “Technorati”, estimates that 3 million new blogs are launched every month. As the number of bloggers increases daily, the number of blog site that goes to stall-mate or dead is also increasing proportionately. Tech researcher Gartner Inc. reported earlier this year that 200 million people have given up blogging, more than twice as many as are active.

Blogging is also becoming a lifestyle to many people. It is not anymore something that we do in our past time. Mark D. Roberts, one of the most prominent "pastor bloggers," announced that he was leaving his pulpit ministry at Irvine (Ca.) Presbyterian Church to become senior director at the Laity Lodge retreat in Texas. "My blog now becomes a part of my primary work," he told his congregation.

Bloggers are discovering that it's not necessarily the quality of their blog posts that matter. It is matching their quality with frequency of update. "Good bloggers work like dogs," says Michael Parsons, editor of the tech site CNet.co.uk. I guess it is one’s choice of how we want to spend our time in blogging. Excessive blogging may not be good to us but there are times we need to do it in order to express ourselves and pass our message across. Excessive blogging is not a recipe for healthy living, especially if you're working a day job that's not paying you to blog

Wish you a great weekend and Be Blessed.
