LIVIN LARGE with Frank E Boy: Bloggin Without a Noggin

LIVIN LARGE with Frank E Boy

Bloggin Without a Noggin

Everyone knows that having a blog has become huge on the internet. It allows every genius an outlet for his or her creativity. Put another way:
“Every idiot now has a village.”

To me, there are two types of bloggers:

• People who are passionate about something and want to persuade you towards their way of thinking
  
• People who “think” they could have been writers (mainly comedy) and end up writing mindless crap that nobody cares about.
  

I suppose I am excluding pros that really write for a living but somehow, I think I can jam anybody that writes a blog into one of the above two categories.

In a technical sense, I write for a living. All day long I write emails, programs, specifications, proposals, letters, marketing materials, etc... My entire day is spent mouse clicking and typing while simultaneously on the phone. By the time the day is done, I’m usually out of steam to write some more.

Some people have more than one blog and post new entries every day. I cannot imagine the time that must take. I can hardly think of something worth blogging about once a month. The bigger problem is: once you get on that roller coaster, how do you get off? If your daily blog changes to weekly or monthly, it’s kind of admitting you aren’t as smart or creative as you thought. You don’t have as much to say as you’d like to think. Basically, you ARE the loser everyone thinks you are.

Inevitably, people want to keep cranking out the text and they resort to a brand of drivel that sounds like the family newsletters that I’m sure you’ve seen.

I’m sticking with low expectations so I don’t hurt myself.
