85%How Addicted to Blogging Are You?
Yeah yeah.. I know I am addicted to blogging :P I knew that since I moved my blog to my own domain, there I realized I did something serious in blogging. Although my hosting still taking up somebody’s space, but when I sat down and thinking what is the good domain name for my blog, I realized this is become so serious!!!
By the time I type this posting, I was blogwalking also. And I stopped at Anto’s blog and read one of his post. It is about stereotype blogger! A-ha! Just like I was about to write also hahaha.. Oh by the way, he puts a really good comic about blogger at his post, you should check it out!
Now people should put blog in one of the addiction in this world. Believe me, this is so real! Blogs are everywhere now. Everyone can have a blog, no exception. In blogger.com, they said that you only need 3 steps to have a brand-new-blog in instant. And blogs now started to crawl and spreading so wide until it tickles journalists. Some journalists believes that blog is the new media in journalism, but painfully, some other journalists weren’t think the same. Hmm, but that’s another story :)
I remembered when I was introduced to internet, it was late 1997. All I know just e-mail, mailing list, and IRC. Then, after have some friends from IRC (I was in #indonesia -undernet, #makassar -undernet, and #pondok -undernet), then I learned how to make a personal website. At first I used Microsoft Word to help me understand those html language. I learned by searching and searching in the internet. My first personal website hosted at geocities. At that time geocities still have those long addresses, and they called neighborhood for the hosting :D
From personal website to a blog, it took a few years, until August 2002. I just realized, it is 9 years already I knew about website, and from that 9 years, 6 of them are my blogging time. And I’m still exist in the blog world, and proud of that. I hope I still blogging until the end of my life. And I hope that this blog will be my memories and remembrance of me, even if my life stops.
Friends, keep on blogging! Of course, always blogging with your own style :) because if you want to copy another blogger’s style into your style, believe me someday you will get tired of blogging! Let blogging be the part of your life!
