Someone pointed out to me that my blog has been rather neglected for the past three months, and asked me why. As I pondered that question myself, I began to wonder whether if it's because I'm afraid of the concept of blogging. The very nature of blogging assumes that the poster's audience is a conglomerate of anonymous readers. Faceless strangers who have no idea who you are, and yet know as many details about your life as you choose to convey. The blogosphere, or Web 2.0 as it is also known, is nothing more than strangers who leech off the lives of others for entertainment. Am I afraid of committing myself to this species of human, of entrusting them with details about my life despite the likely possibility that I'll never meet them face to face? Am I afraid of confessing the inner details of my mind to an anonymous audience instead of confiding in the loved ones within my life?
"Nah I think you're just lazy."
That's a likely possibility too.
