Blogservations

As I sat wondering about where bloggers around the world get their post ideas and inspirations I came up with the following tidbits.
A lot of ppl claim to come up with blog ideas while taking a shower as they claim it clears up their head, wonder if that means a strict no no for shower caps.
Some ppl claim to get ideas while perched on the most comfortable seat in the house or should I say the restroom, they claim it helps them to get that elusive final push.
Some ppl just realise that their published biography is never going to see the light of the day and just blog obsessively about their day to day routines.
Some other just blog ranting about their day adding spice with ripostes which they probably always wish they had come up with at the appropriate times
Some ppl just use their dreams as a source of inspiration as it gives them a chance to play editor thereby effecting minor changes from the original dream version like placing oneself in hero’s role even though they played the villain's sidekick and editing out the R rated portions
Some ppl often blog about their hidden and unfulfilled desires which is probably a good thing because I am guessing going ‘Sweeite I really wish your Mom would take that trip to Iraq she has been dreaming about lately' or discuss prospects of you being in your boss’s seat and owning his cubicle with him isn't such a good idea
Some blogs can be classified as the TMI (too much info) blogs where ppl like to delve into their personal lives often describe abt how its that time of the month or about how they spent every single evening of their mundane nightlife minute by minute.
Some ppl just have a bunch of pictures showcasing their skills with their cameras as they happen to be big time posers or clickers.

That's about all I had to say and looking back at it it seems to be quite a random post but then so is life...isn't it?

this is one half of the cycle.What about reality and reality inspired fiction?
It was like a big to-do list.I thought of the dark lord stories while showering!

Modifying dreams - done

I am wondering where my 'thoughts about no thoughts' kind of posts started from ;)

Jinguchakka said...

I could use a high-5. You are spot on! And some right in a evangelical spirit espousing their causes close to their heart.

Hmm....As an after thought isn't it what blogging is all supposed to be? Like blogging whatever you feel like blogging about?

Shivangi Misra said...

Guess I'll fit in the blogging-whatever-you-feel-like-blogging-about category...

QuaTros said...

Well, Rohan I guess blogging is finally about writing and posting stuff that really is 'self-important' stuff. In that sense, I would like to classify many of the blogs and the topics themselves as 'verbal diarhhoea' :-)

My E-Blog concept has never seen the light of the day. It's reasons are very different from all the above.

(Ask Totti for details...although I doubt whether he understood what i told him...)

janani said...
