Blogs

Psh… blogs. I used to be pretty indifferent to the whole blog thing, but then I got friends. ;) The annoying thing is that there are a bunch of different blogging sites. I recently, and infrequently, used Blogger, and know some people on Wordpress and now I know some people who use Tumblr.

But why does there have to be different ones! I know, there are always different websites, just like Gmail isn’t the only email provider (though it is the best). But with emails it doesn’t really matter, and you might wonder how it could make a difference with blogs, but it does. Instead of individually checking on each persons blogs every once in awhile, when signed up to tumblr or Blogger (probably Wordpress and others too) there is the ability to follow. Which simplifies the matter updating you with other people’s blogs.

I was just going to stay with Blogger especially since I do love Google, but I suppose I will use tumblr due to the persuasion of a person or 2. The setup seems nice, though I think it loads slower then Blogger, so I will see if this ever changes my decision. BUT WAIT!! Blogger allows comments, and tumblr does not… What to this? I could ask you (whoever might read this), but you couldn’t respond on here, you would have to email or Facebook or something me.

Sheesh! I’m long-winded for such a silly matter. OH! and speaking of silly matters: Twitter. Nah, I guess I shouldn’t insult it. It is just a micro-blogging site, but Facebook does a similar thing with the feed posts, but maybe all this is getting in the way of sitting down over some doughnuts and having a conversation about the happenings of daily life. But I defend this accusation with the fact that the  social/blogging sites can help with relationships that are distance challenged.
