The Power of Blog

Whether your interests lie in fashion, politics, pop culture, sports, cars, or any other mainstream American interest like lion taming or mahrang fruit harvesting, you can find them all under one internet umbrella:


There are tons of them. And although in my opinion some can be utterly shallow and ridiculous, I'm glad that every single one of them is around. Because whether or not it is professional and educated writing, each blog attracts readers. And readers are one thing that we don't have enough of in this tech-slave age. Perhaps that magical bound item called the book will make a turn around.

Blogs like Perezhilton and TMZ present gossip over everything that's happening to the six-figure community inhabiting the golden state of California. I've always been confused as to why our society seems to idolize the actors and actresses who, by career description, are never seen behaving as their true identities on the big screen. So I personally don't feel the draw to the celeb gossip category. But that's just me.

Some of my personal favorite blogs are the food and cooking ones. Blogs like Chez Pim and Chocolate and Zucchini are great for finding recipes and deciding what to buy for the kitchen. Tips and ideas on these two are helpful for both the aspiring chef and the hungry apartment-dweller.

And maybe all this information you pick up on will spark the need for...well, another blog.

Just don't make it about Britney, please.
