[weblog vs diary]

This goes out to all, all those people who ever bother to publish their lives, thoughts; secret or otherwise, opinions; voiced or otherwise on bounded articles they would desperately share intimate; profound thoughts or those none the wiser. Diaries, great minds such as Da Vinci had one, simple minds such as our neanderthal cousins had one. So why shouldn't we? Now, we all know that technology has taken a dominant grip on our simple lived lifes and its advent sprout great comings in mankind's very own avenue to express ourselves. Personal diaries attribute their very existence to enabling their human counterparts, to engage in monologues, this to some who religiously keep pages and sometimes books full of personal entries, keyed and locked up beside their skeletons, in their very own closets may come to a point of mind numbing claustrophobia, some diaries want out. Do do their human counterparts mind you. Internet blogging, short for weblogging like the many sprouting of great comings, inevitably, will coerce more vocal diary keepers to forgo their art and pick up where their left their expressions on virtual reality. Like many other great revolutions, will this one push pen pushers to near extinction making way to a new breed of weblogging junkies? Personally, guilty of forgoing the fine art of closed diary keeping, although weblogging may be on the rampant rise, i feel that personal diary keepers will still have a place of their own, beside their skeletons in their closets.
