What's a blog??

Take the B off and you get LOG. It's a log.  A diary.  A journal.  It's a thing you write for yourself because because you can hardly wait to see what you have to say. You can go back and read what you had to say earlier.

Something like Facebook, right?  WRONG! You do FB for comments and to get a conversation going. To communicate. Share. Socialize. You do a blog for yourself.  Nobody else would like it that much anyway.

This is one of five blogs I write for myself.  Almost a thousand entries total. They are pretty good.  I like them.

Might some long time bloggers identify as introverts? I will say something to myself about that on my introvert blog. I will be impressed. That is what blogs are for.

Blogs are perfect for  us who don't like conflict.  I can say blog things I won't say on Facebook because I don't really want to argue about it or see a long stream of comments for and against. That's what FB is for and it does it well. 

Maybe I will do number 6 so I can be even more amazed, amused or confused by what I wrote.  I have a title.  "Straight from the heart of a very old fart." Maybe somewhat more serious.  But not a lot.  Just a tad.  A bit.  Which ever is smaller.
