[Jadian]

I've got one now. I feel very "in the loop". My mom made me fall off my chair when she asked me if this was a "personal blog that everyone seems to have?" My mom is like sixty.

Anyway, username is Jadian. If any of you are interested. I plan on keeping my friends lists short just because it's mostly a forum for my family and offline friends back in BC. But you know... heads up.

Somehow I never saw the need for one either...I've always just used this place to rant when I need to...

I have a feeling I was damned way before I started my LJ.

I've never felt the need to start one. First, it takes energy and I don't have enough time to post on the forums I like, let alone starting my own public diary.

Questions:

What do you put in a blog? I know everyone is different, but I would think writing about my personal life is the last thing I'd want to have on the internet, even under a pseudonym.

So do you use it for other reasons? A soapbox? A polital rant? Jokes? Other stuff?

What motivates you to keep one, and what do you want to put there for everyone to read?

And why is it useful? Can you give me any good reasons why I am sadly behind the times an need to start one?

Which explains why it's so natural you would have started one, Jace...
