- The expert who wants to share information
- Homely Americans who feel the need to share their joy with the world
- People with verbal diarrhoea who seem to have opinions on everything
So why this global rise in blogging? Why would an anti-social person start a blog?
Suppose it's all down to a lack of community, busy, busy lives where people are so busy talking about what they saw on television last night, that those mundane musings become inconsequential and therefore unspoken. Maybe we just don't want to seem boring to people we know, maybe we just talk so much crap all day long, that we know it's immoral to try and make people listen to even more of it? Or maybe, people like me are just too busy for conversations that aren't meaningful or informative....always in such a hurry, always needing to pass on vital information about the child's next Assembly or doctors appointment, or the even more important stuff, like where the lunchbox has vanished to and what's for dinner tonight. So, like a mouses heartbeat, the syllables are all used up before anything useful is spoken.
Things like - My son's hand looks like a tarantula when he plays guitar. Vitally important stuff!
