The need to Blog ...?


There can be multiple reasons which push a person to blog.

As for me the need arose because there are too many channels for recieving information
( TV :300+channels, Print : 2 newspapers,Online,Radio,Cell Phone etc)
and just one to give out info ( Word Of Mouth).


A blog helps you to organise and make a lil sense of this information overload.

Other sundry but equally imp reasons are :
a) Free time in office
b) Checking if you really can write things over and above office emails.
c) Exploring alternate career opportunities & 0.001% chances of winning some lit award ( if Arvind Adiga can so can i...high hopes but then y not! )


Speaking about careers the current economic slowdown scenario gives me a clear cut picture as to why most parents eat their children's brain to become a doctor.....i dont think medical expenditure is cut during recession ..?
...well almost true with the exception of the body part(s) enhancement medical expenditure i guess.

Nicely put in Shibu ..
I personally believe that people create such identities or write primarily to express all that's unsaid , crushed , smothered , smeared, defaced and gulped by the compulsions of Life, society, peers n colleagus, relatives, aspirations, failures and above all Destiny.

The better way to do this ( actually to relieve and Re Live onelself is by Using the Pen . You yourself will feel the difference .

Try Doing It Buddy.
