Blogging is NOT just about Me!
Blogging is not all about 'I, me, and myself', nor a way to exhibit one's public profile. To me, it is about making friends and sharing experiences.

What I like about blogging is receiving opinions and comments from others without the need to know who they are or the need for them to know who I am. As a blogger, I use a cartoon avatar to represent me. By doing this, I have the advantage of receiving genuine and non-bias feedback from readers, something which cannot be done if the other party knows me, as most people who knows one another usually do not wish to 'offend' the other, or wish to remain in friendly status quo.

Blogging is, in my opinion, more than just an online diary. The truth is, blogging serves better as a tool for communication, where I share to the world what I know. I have many blogs on the Net, and each of these blogs serve a different objective.

For example, I have a blog where I seek to exchange opinions about my line of work and study, another blog on leisure where I share my travel experience and photographs, and an interest group blog where I share about my hobbies and my collectables of comic characters.

Blogging can be used for many purposes. People whom I've interviewed for an article I wrote in a magazine two years ago, agree that it is a useful tool for education where teachers can communicate with students, areas of studies. Others say it is a good way to know a person in-depth, because they can read archives of individuals to know his or her past, and current entries to know the present.

Whatever our opinions may be concerning blogging, let me say blogging is something close to my heart, because through it, I have found several good friends, who knows my innermost thoughts better than when we meet face to face!
