Intro. Post.

I have "blogged" before in several journals in the past, although I don't like using the term "blog"; it sounds trendy and anoyying along the lines of "generation X" and "Generation Y". I generally don't mind online journaling, it would be near impossible nowadays for someone to not have one, but latley the trend has gotten a bit too saturated for my tastes (the random people commenting on random blogs brings to question humanities obsession with other people's drama).

To imcorporate blogging into the english ciriculum was an evitability and is a sign of the times; a few years ago scientists and professors thought that instant messanging and online journals would decrease reading and literacy rates. Recently, however, it seems these same people have reversed their cries of despair into hails of praise [Links to evidence of this occurence will be posted whenever]. We'll just have to wait to see, I guess.
