Philosophy on Writing in General
I have come to the conclusion that part of the reason why I am not getting 100% satisfaction from this act of creativity (i.e. Blogging) is that I am spending way too much time writing and not enough time reading. :)
If you wikipedia “blogging” and scroll down a little bit this is what you will read.
The collective community of all blogs is known as the blogosphere. Since all blogs are on the internet by definition, they may be seen as interconnected and socially networked, through blogrolls, comments, linkbacks (refbacks, trackbacks or pingbacks) and backlinks. Discussions “in the blogosphere” have been used by the media as a gauge of public opinion on various issues.
It has been difficult for me to grasp this concept of the blogosphere. My blog is only as successful as those who read it and gain from it. And vice versa.
I COULD be a sociopath and say I dont care. This blog is for me and for me only and if you dont like it you could go away.. but I am not going to do that. I am all about community. A lot of the things I write on here make no sense, have no meaning, or are honest questions that I have about various issues in life.
Writing about them is a good way to release, but I want something more. I want people to contribute, to say how they feel, to show me their point of view.
The only way to do that is to build a strong relationship, work my way into the blogosphere, and become a part of the community. That way people who read this will eventually contribute, and add their opinion.
This is what I am after. YOUR OPINON.
But I am not going to beg for it. :) I know that Rome was not build in a day , it will take time and patience. BUT.. there is also another saying. “Build it and they will come.”
All are welcome here.

I have never been an "online community first" person. The internet is how I stay in touch with people I met in real life. I'm not a "tweet comments at celebrities" guy. I was never funny enough to be the funniest person on Twitter.
