I was an old married man when MySpace became popular, so I had no need for it. I don't blog, as you can see from the scattered history of lame postings. My wife does blog, and she does it all the time. That is not literally true, but she has spent more than a few late nights worrying about html code, which seems so odd to me since she does not do anything else with technology. For her, charging a camera or programming her phone fit into the realm of technology.
It must be addicting to blog about stuff if you have fun things to talk about, like kids' funny sayings or whatever. I go to work and school all day, so I do nothing that would be fun for anyone on earth to read about.
I do like the ability to get in touch with people that I have not seen for a while. I guess that MySpace served this function so long ago, but I was never a part of it. My wife is now friends with people that only I knew before her blog started. She has become pen-pals through her blog with my friends' wives, her old high school or junior high friends, or even people that just went to the same schools that she attended. This is amazing to me. I can't believe how small the world can be if you are LDS, if you ever lived in Mesa, or if you share some other small characteristic as anyone else. I have not listed any friends on my blog, and no one can comment if I never post anything. I do look at Stacie's blog's comments, and I am amazed at how easy it is to get in touch with anyone. I will give $5 to anyone that gets Steve Nash to read my blog.
