Well like they said its just your ONLY DIARY, where you can talk about the HOTTEST TRENDS, THE HOTTEST CELEBRITIES, and How emo you look.

The majority of blogs, are done by teenage girls, who say such bad things about their friends and online friends that they have to make theirs "Friends only" to read. Which i hate, because I rather you just say something outward and bold instead of being private but ohwell.

The blogs done by guys are usually lacking. Based on how emo and popular you are, it can be similar to teenage girls journals with the same basic principles.

The More popular blogs are political and tech commentary, and news programs like CNN will often go to those sites for ideas and news. These sites are very important because they are often truthfull of how a company should run itself.

Myspace is What I'd call Advertising Yourself. The great thing about it is that it filters out some popular people who tend to be afraid to use their real picture but are popular on other journal sites by the communities they run.
Myspace is basically a site about yourself, where you typically write about why people should be interested in meeting you. OR why people should meet you but your too high up in your virtual celebrity status that you just want the attention.

So even though blogs are the IN thing these days, just watch out for the concieted types, and they are everywhere.

I have One entertainment/tech blog, a Cartoon blog, and a myspace.

I've kept a diary since I was 7 more or less religiously. Its handwritten in several attractive volumes. I'd never put them on line though. Some thoughts are just too private and if you think other people are going to be reading them you tend not to be as honest.
