To ask if anyone blogs anymore?

[Cruella76]

Do you write or read blogs?

Years ago when my dc were little blogging was quite a big thing. I kept one for a while and it had a relatively good readership but I let it slip and deleted it.

I love to write and am considering starting another blog not to share as such, but more for an online journal/outlet to encourage me to write a bit more. It's something I enjoy doing.

Does anyone else blog? If so, why? And what do you use? I could never get my head around Wordpress and blogger seems to have changed so I was thinking something totally new like medium?

I keep one but I no longer publish. I worry about my anonymity.
To answer your OP. People still blog. It is harder to sustain readership nowadays.
I have a friend who runs a blog like it is her job and she complains bitterly on social media about how no one reads and I feel obligated to read articles I amnot interested in to make her happy. I don't mind it. I know how it feels.

As to why. I've had a blog since 1999. Hello LiveJournal! I enjoy it and I have made some great close friends through it. It provided me with an outlet and a gateway to the world when my mother wouldn't let me out.

Oh gosh I vaguely remember live journal! I've only ever used blogger. I don't intend to share it or try to get a big readership I just like the thought of writing something for me...

Try tumblr. You can set privacy for each post and also follow things you are interested in.

i was a bit of a name back in the heady days of 2004/5/6

got invited to a meet up in london with some other names and we all hid separately in the pub as we were unable to cope with face-to-face contact. i was on blogspot and when i started it was on dialup!

i think it’s all still up. i do miss it, it was good motivation to write every day.

Never done it, and never read one.
