Why is it that millions of people out there spend their time reading other people's thoughts and ideas? What is it that compels them to turn on their computer and read up what some stranger has to say. I mean, have we run out of things to do on the internet? You would give up watching an episode of your favorite tv show, or stream a movie, or download a classic film, or read an Ebook, or watch a random cat video on youtube for what? You would prefer to read disorganized thoughts spewed up by some dude with a laptop and alot of free time on his hands. You would choose that over millions of possibilities of entertainment. You would choose that over porn?
Better yet, what is it that causes people to start a process that broadcasts there thoughts, feelings, beliefs and emotions on the world wide web. Its like you are inviting others to infringe your privacy. You want them to know whats going on in your head.
So, to get around this, I have decided to jump on the blogging bandwagon. I want to figure out what causes people to blog and to read blogs. Are we that lonely that we feel the need to confide in strangers in some other country, in some other time zone. Sheesh.

The brilliant thing about the technological age we live in is that we've come up with a multitude of ways to save more time, and given ourselves more ways to waste it.
ReplyDeleteTo be fair, though, I WOULD rather be looking at porn...
Yes . you are thinking with your dick on that one, not with your brain. Interesting
ReplyDeleteNot really though. If I were thinking with my dick I WOULD be looking at porn. Just like if I were to give in to my whims I'd never work, or I'd leave the filters off and tell everyone what I think. We are more than our impulses.
ReplyDeleteTo be honest, however, I was mostly joking anyway about the porn thing. Mostly.
come on jane, there's nothing wrong with a little porn. :D
ReplyDeleteInteresting questions meku. My only answer is that I really hate all those cat videos on YouTube and thus would much rather read the ramblings of others.
