Is Blogging Changing Literature and Writing in the Present Period?


As literature and writing evolve, more and more people join the successful ranks of bloggers, online article writers, and eBook authors. Are we not sure that what we are doing here today on the Internet is not omnipotent? I believe what we write on the Internet today, will in fact, be how history judges us tomorrow.

Is Blogging changing Literature and Writing in the present period? We know that online article writers are beginning to change content on the Internet and that people spend as much time on the Internet as they do reading newspapers and watch TV combined now.

Some might believe as others have said in the past that “what we say here today will be forgotten,” but will it? And will those who played a part in making history in cyber space be the ones who literally changed the face and the future of the written human culture? What say you?

The answer is indeed left for the historians and the entrepreneurial victors of these Internet venues and yet we are well on our way to making that history a reality with our own participation on Blogs, online article sites and content writing.

With this incredible responsibility before us; we must commit thinking time to the cause and understand the importance of this cross-roads in designing the future on the Internet. Let’s make a difference!

Have you ever participated on a Blog or an Internet forum and felt like there was a little bit of tribalism going on. Where people were ganging up on one another and calling them names and slandering them. Have you noticed that cyber tribalism is on the rise and many of these people are migrating now because they just want to live a better life in other places in the virtual world?

Many of them are crossing the borders into other types of web sites including industry website forums and blogs. The influx of the illegal bloggers and Sploggers is increasing at a rapid rate. Cyber tribalism and cyber bullying is also on the rise on blogs across our nation and something must be done.

It seems when one person attacks another; a mob mentality will start and people will start taking sides and you can watch the Machiavellian exploits of personalities and commenters take place. It is like a tribal dance on a full moon night, as the sound and fury rages on into the darkness because cyber tribalism prevails in the blogosphere.

When you've had enough of the news and the mass media hysteria it is time to go blogging. When you get there just remember I warned you that there are headhunters in a cyber tribalism world of the virtual blogoshere. I wish you all the best and hope your war paint is enough to scare them away. God be with you.

Is a Blog a digital blackboard? Recently a member of the Online Think Tank stated this in a sentence explaining the use of Blogs in society and on the internet. But is his comment a legitimate one? After all no one can say that a digital blackboard is a blog? The word Blog seems to suggest "log" or a place where entries of thoughts are made, such as a journal or log book.

But is a Blog a Log? No, Is a Frog a Hog? Sam I am? In reality Blogs are nothing more than food for the masses. In fact the original word Blog comes from a Dr Seuss Book, where Blogs were trout food. So is the joke really on all the bloggers out there? In other words Blogs are only places designed for the masses to discharge all their sound and fury like a virtual peanut gallery?

If this is the case then it is pretty sad to think that all bloggers out there are putting all their words and thoughts into a virtual space for no reason. How ironic that all the bloggers fell for this and still they spend countless hours putting online their calendar categorized diatribes and monologues about things that really don't matter.

What is even more fun to consider is that other people actually come and read them. Are you a blogger? Don't you feel silly now that all this is really a joke and you fell for it? A reference;
