Jo(e) has a great post on Blogging as an emerging genre
Very interesting.
I for one have noticed how much better my writing has become, now that I have an excuse for a daily outlet for my random thoughts. And as people actually read (and comment on) my writing, I find myself having to craft it more carefully.
I also love the phenomenon of thinking as I go through life, I should/could blog about this.
Not that every post is well crafted. This quickie "check this out" post being an example :)
Good day everyone!

The other thing I was thinking about the other day was the fact of how e-mail, IM, and text messaging have destroyed grammar and spelling .... but perhaps blogging is going to bring it back. What seems reasonable to read on a two-inch cell phone would seem absurd on a continuous screen of text. Blogs have (hopefully) brought back paragraphs. And the community aspect of the new friends is wonderful!
