Internet these days is full of bloggers of different shades and hues, including me. But I was just wondering why do people blog or why do they blog on things they blog. Is blogging a serious hobby or it has become a place to vent out one's feeling about practically everything in this universe.
I am blogging on blogging. Just a few days ago, someone forwarded me a link of a blog in which the author was claiming that"Munni badnam hui" song from movie "Dabaang" is not the only sleazy song in Hindi film industry and then went on to give arguments and also list of historical sleazy songs! Couldn't have imagined someone actually giving a serious try to remind people of our history of sleazy songs! Google has a search engine for blogs but its very rarely that one actually stumbles upon a good blog which is worth reading.
I think blogging is becoming more like media these days where channels like Aaj Tak even show Raju Srivastava's stupid acting as breaking news! And to top it all, top bloggers (by most traffic attracted) convert their blogs into books and sell it at Rs. 150 for urban readers. I happened to pick up this book called as "May I have your attention please". Actual title, the way it is printed on the book, shows the desperate attempt to attract readers to an otherwise useless and rubbish book. I mean Internet was not enough to spread useless literature so you publish a book out of it!
I want to read real, imaginative and fresh blogs which would warrant me at-least 5 minutes of attention time. Not some old, creepy, good-at-criticizing blogs.
Till then, I think will rather visit book stalls.
