Why blog?

Olaa! I'm Afiqah. I just got recruited in this group today so, I guess I'll give it a go. Blogging is also another way to communicate. A blog is basically an online journal where anyone(provided they know how to blog) can post anything they want online. Oh by the way blog actually stands for web log. Usually bloggers blog about things currently happening to themselves or others, how they feel, what they're going through, or anything random. Matter of fact, some things blogged about can be controversial. We being human, love controversies don't we? So, we leave comments supporting or denying the subject. Plus, most blogs have chat boxes where readers can chat. They can also directly leave comments in the current post.
What we say and how we say things about a certain subject can affect the people around us. Some things can be ambiguous as not everyone intepret things the same way. Some might take opinions as insults. Some get very defensive about certain subjects! Lesson : Before saying something, think it through. Don't hurt people. Mind your words and the people you are directing. Be nice when commenting about races, religions, countries and whatever issues you think will be sensitive! Be kind and courteous so we can forever live in harmony! A dream-I know. No harm in trying though. =)
I'm sure most of us have our own blogs. Me, being a blogger knows how it is to live in the world of bloggin. It's ineveitable that I don't watch my language sometimes too, but hey! We're only human. We can only try to be better!
Check out my private blog if you want. Give me a buzz and I'll invite you!
