Do you keep a blog or a journal online? email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 84/100. alexdiazgranados (507)   ranked 1 out of 14 in journal3 years ago

As someone who enjoys writing, I sometimes like to write down what's on my mind or to tell my friends what's new in my life through my blog on MySpace. I try my best not to write about boring or depressing topics, and if I'm in love with someone I don't ever really write too much about her online, but sometimes I do delve into things that bug me.

Do you keep a blog or journal? Do you keep it daily, or just whenever you feel like posting? How intimate are your entries?

I keep a Xanga, and I also blog on my Myspace page. I try to write atleast once a week, but life gets in the way. I do keep an off-line, paper diary which I write in every other night.

That's wonderful! Do you have any particular topics you like to blog about?

I have had an online journal on journalspace.com for the longest time! Since 2004 I believe. I also keep blogs on myspace. :) I like to write about my life and such. Keep updates on my son and whats going on. My mom reads my blog on journalspace and that's about it. :)

Do you write detailed entries with much description? Or are they short, to-the-point entries?

I have a few blog places, but they aren't at blogging websites. I use myspace to blog once in awhile. I also blog at sparkpeople (diet website). I WANT to keep it up, and I WANT to have an interesting blog, but I have a hard time with it. I don't know why though, I seem to be able to type a lot on sites like mylot, seems I should be able to blog:)

I never get too personal, just general things about me or life or whatever. I have friends who post every single thing about their life and I don't get it b/c I think sometimes the people they are writing about or complaining about may see their blog and realize it is about them.


myLot reputation of 84/100. alexdiazgranados (507)   ranked 1 out of 14 in journal  3 years ago

I tend to be equally careful about my blog; I mean, sometimes I'll write stuff about sex or love or whatever if I need to, but I've never written anything about the woman I care most about except in vague or general terms.

And if I'm feeling particularly lazy but still want to do a blog entry, I simply copy/paste a review from Epinions or a quiz result (usually, of course, about sex).

I used to enter a few responses on a blog, but I have long since stopped as I don't have time to fit everything that I have going on into the time that I would have available to write that blog. (Hopefully that made sense). Maybe it is because I don't have the patience to talk about myself, but it would be something nice to have in order to look back on it some days down the road.


myLot reputation of 84/100. alexdiazgranados (507)   ranked 1 out of 14 in journal  3 years ago

Making time to write blog entries is sometimes a big challenge even for people who don't have a complicated schedule because of work, studies, or outside responsibilities. And sometimes it's very tough to figure out what to write about even when one does have a tendency (as I do) to talk about myself. Perhaps it's easier to keep an old-fashioned pen-and-paper diary which no one will read, because I find that simply blurting out every private thought one has can sometimes be counterproductive, especially in a public blog, where everyone can, depending on where the blog is and the privacy settings selected, read all the entries.

My life, particularly my love life (such as it is), can sometimes be alluded to. and I have written about past loves in my MySpace blog, but I don't ever discuss the girl that I'm in love with.

I don't keep a public blog, although I have one that is kept private on a dieting site. It has the option to share certain entries with other site members if I choose, but I have not chosen to do this.

I like to be able to look back on it if I want to, but I see too many people blurting out too much personal information.

In the case of not wanting anyone to read your blogs, do you use it because it's more convenient to type on a keyboard and hide it instead of keeping a paper diary?

Right now I have four blogs that I update regularly. They are purely for business purposes and trying to earn some cash off them. I have joined a couple of paid blogging sites and plan to join a couple more so that's why I needed four blogs.

What kind of entries do you enter? Are you a business person with an enterprise? Do you write long entries...short entries....and do you have set topics you write about?

I have a blog at Yahoo 360 that I post in a few times a week about things that capture my fancy. I keep 2 blogs at Wordpress -- one is about anomalies and oddities of our planet and beyond, and I post there weekly -- the other is a more personal one and mainly about my money-making endeavors and that's the one I post in almost daily. I have one at MySpace about UFOs and paranormal phenomena, and I post about once a month. I'm also editor of an e-zine that explores superstitions, mythology and urban legends, etc. All this keeps me quite busy but I enjoy it so much!

Hey, that's great! I like blogging on MySpace whenever possible even though I have one on hi5 as well.
