So, I've been reading this book that I discovered from the Library, "We've Got Blog: how weblogs are changing our future" It's really interesting. It mainly show the culture and the counter culture of weblogging and the evolution of it. It only started with a few weblogs back in the day. But as the expansion of sites such as Blogger.com, weblogging become more and more popular because it was more and more accessible. Coupled with the fact that more people have Internet access, the explosion of the weblog community isn't such a shock.

I got acquainted with the "veterns" of the weblogging community. Who to go to, who to read, and who to revere. Now, I have bookmarked sites such as CamWorld, Robot Wisdom, Powazek, Megnut.com, Peterme.com, and Kottke.org. Someday I wish to save up enough money to purchase my own domain name so I can have a cool blog too. Maybe I'll use my Temple site. Or something.

I think the difference between Xanga and other bloggers is that Xanga is for the little kids who update with posts like, "I am so bored" or "My boyfriend left me!". Not really saying anything with a thousand words. And they're very boring. Who wants to know about your day? I want to know about yourself and what you think!

Although I just started on the road to reading good weblogs, I hope I will be able to publish a respectable weblog nonetheless.
