So, I am a blogger. Everyone knows that.
But the blogger in me has died. Lost interest. No motivation to blog because everyone is on Facebook.
Nobody read blogs nowadays.
But few days ago after I posted the last post, someone asked me in person. “So what was your decision?”
OH MY GOD….people still read my blog. I am so flattered. And guilty too.
I don’t update here much because my thoughts and opinions spill by the minute and I have Facebook to spew them. Sometimes, when I have really lengthy stuffs to write, I will use the Note function.
Facebook is much more gratifying because I get instant Likes and Comments. It is really nice when people commented something you want to hear.
If they don’t make sense or annoy me, I get to smack them away with a ‘Delete’ or ‘Unfriend’. These buttons are damn satisfying for evil people like me.
I do the talking all the time. I only want to hear what I want to hear. And I get them instantly on Facebook.
So, why do people even blog anymore?
Well, things on Facebook belongs there and it is not as effective as things written on our blogs. Over here, whatever is written stays here forever as long as I can afford to keep it alive.
Google still favour blogs. Advertisements here remain permanently.
So, blog still floats around the internet. But I have nothing much to write.
Have noticed you’re on FB a lot, too :)… but have not stopped visiting your blog off and on.
pls keep on writing. i can’t get on FB much so your blog is one of those i look in on once in a while. lazy to comment lah, most of the time. 🙂
Yes, I do check out your blog once in a while. Unfortunately your losing interest in writing blogs has been quite apparent, and it is also reflected in the slide in your PageRank and Alexa ranking. As you see, it all has a circling effect, you either spiral upwards or down. Me, I am still writing, after all these years.
Perhaps you can once again write more posts on cooking and offering cooking tips which I remember had a good following.
