Blogging – The New Journal

If emails had replaced letters, SMSs had replaced phone calls, blogging started as a possible replacement to diary writing. In the super fast world we have been living in for the last couple of decades, taking time out to sit back and jot down the events of the day on a piece of paper eventually became cumbersome and finally a redundant process. Why not pinch out some of the time one spends on the computer and the internet? In between office work, all one needed to do was go hammer and tongs at the keyboard and store his or her thoughts as they came. And thus was born web logging or what we simply know today as blogging.

This was in the very late 1990s. But as the new millennium dawned and technology became available to everyone, websites realized the potential of blogging. Free blogging sites came up and suddenly having a personal blog became the thing to do online. Blogs soon became a private community on the web as a blogger’s friends started visiting his blogs and he in returned dropped in at their blogs.

And then as it happens with every new technological innovation, blogging took on its own character. It was no longer limited to personal diaries. Yes the online diary writing continued and is still a popular form of blogging, but blogging became much more than that. For some it became an online marketing tool, to market ideas, to market art, to market culture, to market political campaigns. But for many others it became a medium to share. Share information, share experience, share life.
