To blog or not blog
Right now I am having a reunion at my house. We are all Latin American between 24 and 28 years old and we are discussing about blogs. None of them except for me have had a blog before. None of them have post any comment in a blog. They all believe that blogs are for people that have a lot of free time. I am trying to convinced them that it is a fun and interesting way to communicate with other persons and to be able to express yourself with freedom .
I do not blame them for thinking that blogs are nonsense. That is because in Latin America blogs are not famous at all. Many people do not know what they are. The ones that have heard about it, think it is a waste of time.
This is a never ending story. Do you think, in a near future, that blogs will make a difference in the way people communicate?

I honestly don’t think it will change the way we communicate. Blogs are a great way to become involved and hear what other people, besides the mainstream media, have to say. However, there’s only so much time in one day. We still must eat, sleep, work, exercise, and socialize. If we spend more time on the blogs, then something else has to get cut short. My guess is it will be sleep.
I think that cyber-socializing will never completely take the place of actual interaction. The telephone and face-to-face conversations beat the blogs and instant messages any day of the week.
