The 'IN' thing....

I havent blogged in a while now. Cudnt find any specific reasons to rite on. Not that there is one right now. When I started riting this post, I found out, that the word ‘blog or bloging’ is not a recognised, word in MS dictionary. Though it’s The IN thing these days. Anybody and everybody is doing it, cast, creed, gender etc etc no bar. Infact its become such a fad to blog these days. That they had his complete article in the Times of India the other day on Priyanka Gandhi aka Priyanka Vadhera Gandhi or whatever on her new found love / fascination for blogging. Why did she have to realise it so late that she can rite comprehensible English especially after studying from JMC. She really makes JMCites feel proud. And are we suppose to feel blessed that thank god finally our politicians will be able to correct the Freudian slip. How modest can they be.
Anyway my point here is, even though blogging is an incorrect word as per the dictionary, its fashionable to blog now and anybody who is not doing it is oh so LS. You know what I mean rite. I somehow cant connect with such ideas. But I know a lot of people who right just for the heck of it, without letting out their inner most self.
Certain things like riting, photography, painting and all creative skills shud be inborn and not inculcated or forced. But I guess all of us need a vent like me. Hence a blog. Ironically all the celebrities who blog to be in the rat race, cant even express their genuine views. And its just another public attention seeking tactics. I wonder though, how can you rite without a pinch of you in it. Most of my posts are autobiographical. I think I have to learn this trick of trade.

I guess it totally depends on what you want from the page that you call a blog... and that would define how and what you write on it !!

Of course, a blog, in all fairness, is supposed to be autobiographical (or at least semi-autobiographical). That's a sure no-brainer.
Mine is semi. Can't make it more than that. Don't like people peeping into my souls. At least not 'em all;-)
