Blog or barf

Have you heard my rant about blogging? It goes something like this... "If I have to go to another conference that waxes on about blogging I'm going to barf. Who has that kind of time? Who thinks that reading about what someone else had for dinner is interesting? Who thinks in this day and age someone is going to read anything longer than 250 words?" So what am I doing starting a blog, you ask?! Good question. I guess if you can't beat 'em, join 'em. If truth be known when I need a little mindless distraction from work I often slip onto the blogs of those I know who have them and read about their lives (if they keep it short!). I mainly like looking at other's photos. I'll have to endeavor to work up to that. In many respects I think blogs are a good way to keep in touch with family and friends who live far away... or maybe I'm the one who lives far away? See previous post. Ugh, post. I'm even using the lingo. Barf. No... blog.
