And So I'm Blah..gging

It's boring now and has been for sometime. The novelty of blogging wore off. Late 90's, early 2000 probably up to 2006 blogging (even having online journal as I have several as well..besides this blog) was the phenomenon that it had become. But now it seems everyone has to have one. Even those social networking sites joined in proliferation of online display of emotions. I used to blog everyday and do my online journal...but now, I guess I don't have much to say anymore. Well, I actually do as I like to write and I gotta have a site to dump my thoughts.

I have to agree with this article from wired
Writing a weblog today isn't the bright idea it was four years ago. The blogosphere, once a freshwater oasis of folksy self-expression and clever thought, has been flooded by a tsunami of paid bilge. Cut-rate journalists and underground marketing campaigns now drown out the authentic voices of amateur wordsmiths. It's almost impossible to get noticed, except by hecklers. And why bother? The time it takes to craft sharp, witty blog prose is better spent expressing yourself on Flickr, Facebook, or Twitter.
I used to blog about things that really requires something witty or something that has to do with current state of social existence. This is more like musings with relevance or lack thereof whereas my online journal...tends to be more of an ebonics of nonsense blahs. I'm crazy. I'm bored. I hardly say anything anymore...unlike before.

I bet if I were in tweendom land, I'd probably enjoy blah-gging (like I used to before). I still enjoy doing so but not as often.

Obama won the US election. Like Filipinos cares! Well, maybe those who are from Hawaii since there are lots of them out there. We're gonna have our own election in the year 2010...now that's worth caring! 10 years of Arroyo is enough. Change we need..as Obama keeps mentioning.
