I’ve never really paid any attention to blogs. I’ve read a few postings here and there when they’ve involved friends or a topic I’m interested in, but I have certainly never followed any. I do so much dense academic and scientific reading for work and school that I have a hard time reading things that aren’t published in peer reviewed journals. So the fact that I am starting to write one now seems a bit ironic. However, in the interest of self-improvement I have been meaning to start a journal of some sort for a while now. Hopefully the blog format will satisfy that desire and posting will become routine enough for me to stick with it.
But how do I start things off? Who am I writing to? Do I write to whatever audience happens to create itself or do I write to myself and let the audience look in?
Dear Diary,
Today I started a blog…
