Why do I blog?

Now that you’ve clicked it, you deserve to know the reason why this blog exists in the blogosphere.

1. Do you like the looks and content of your blog?

Absolutely! I feel that its a part and parcel of the complete package that you are offering to your blog readers.

2. Does your family know about your blog?

Yep! My dad knows about it and my brother also knows that I am a passionate blogger! The rest of my family members are pretty much unaware of this platform.

3. Can you tell your friends about your blog?

Yes. I have made it known to a lot of my friends. For me blogging gives a sense of liberation. It’s a wonderful platform to share my thoughts, ideas, and have a say on almost everything, right from the most trivialist of the topics like a cat jumped over my table stuff to who is US to hang saddam?

4. Do you just read the blogs of those who comment on your blog?

I mostly read the blogs I have blog rolled regularly and try to comment as well. It has sort of helped me build a rapport and make new friends in the blogosphere. But having said that I also read other blogs every now and then, mostly via other people’s blog roll.

5. Did your blog positively affect your mind?

9/10 times it has a positive impact on me. It has changed my perspective and made me realize that world around me is so diverse. I can relate to a lot of stories that other people post on their blogs.

6. What does the number of visitors to your blog mean?

To be frank with you guys, I was initially allured by this stats stuff, which was centered around the figures like how many hits per day and so on. But of late diversity in blog readers is what matters to me more than just numbers. To reach a wider audience is more important!
7. Do you imagine what other bloggers look like?

If they happen to post a snap of theirs, it might help! I suppose most of them belong to the same galaxy as mine and yours. Are there any ETs blogging as well? If yes, please lemme know

8. Do you think blogging has any real benefits?

Absolutely. I firmly believe that not only does this help you review your thought process by presenting you with an opportunity to read about people whose experience are mostly real and not cooked up!

9. Do you think that the blogosphere is a stand alone community separated from the real world?

Not really. It’s very much a part and parcel of the world wide web. I think it has certainly evolved as a strong platform to showcase your stance to the world outside. I am sure the days are not far, when you will be looked up on as an ET if you don’t blog! Having said that, a true passion to blog, is what would really help you sustain yourself in the long run.

10. Do some political blogs scare you? Do you avoid them?

I firmly believe in freedom of thought and expression. What better platform can there be to share your political stance, than a blog? I am not really scared of any such blogs! I read quite a few of them.

11. Do you think criticizing your blog is useful?

I feel that my blog is dynamic and any system that is dynamic needs a feed back. It need not always be a praise; it could be criticism as well. I feel constructive criticism is always helpful for improvement.

12. Have you ever thought what would happen to your blog in case you died?

Hmmm…. Not really! I wonder that it would stay there at some corner in the blogosphere, holding back all my memories in text and graphic, always reminding people of what I thought and believed in.

13. Which blogger has had the greatest impression on you?

I wouldn’t call it as impressed but rather call it as impact. A lot of them have had a positive impact on me. I really appreciate bloggers for the originality of their content, their ability to separate fact from fiction, with utter distinction. I truly admire a few bloggers! (Just scroll down my blog roll for confirmation)

14. Which blogger do you think is the most similar to you?

I haven’t really met anyone of my wavelength yet! But I feel each blog is unique in its own way. As the cliche goes, “Every bollywood movie is unique, in spite of the same old romantic saga.” Lol!!
