Yeah, right, so I have a blog now. I have been thinking about starting one for quite a while, but I was reluctant, thinking my blogging activities would eventually degrade into maintaining some Japanese cyber pet, or better known as Tamagotchi, where I have to remember to upkeep my blog; otherwise, my blog will just, like, die.

That said, however, I am not going to deceive myself into thinking that if I start a blog, my blog will be well read and loved by the thousands. I am just hoping for a non-embarassing readership count.

“No one cares about your blog,” so says the tag line on T-shirts, mugs, pens, and mouse pads that you can buy online. I think this tag line a valid reality check. You can blog your entire life or try to discuss about every topic under the sky, but the outcome is most possibly: ”Who cares?”. Really, who cares about what you ate for breakfast this morning, or what you did at last night’s reunion dinner with your buddies.

Blogs that succeed are those has something useful information to offer. So, a blog that, say, talks about nothing else but food may draw in the crowd because readers find the reviews about the various restaurants, food, and prices useful. Or maybe not, since such food blogs are a dime a dozen nowadays.
