I don't blog but ever since I obtained my MBP I make video posts (vlogs, if you will) for a friend of mine and post them up on Facebook because he really enjoys them.
I never considered that what I had to say was pertinent enough to attract so many people, though that doesn't mean I don't respect those who do choose to pursue the interest. I just never felt my life or opinions would be interesting enough unless I shared too much and that'd be flip flopping between two extremes

When I was younger, I hardcore blogged. Had my own website, knew HTML and CSS and designed it myself. I forget how to do most of that stuff now though. It was fun while it lasted, but then I grew up a little bit and my hobbies changed.

I suppose one might consider major amounts of photo uploads to facebook a form of blogging perhaps? If so, I do that kind.

I've also been on LJ for 6 years, (it used to be so popular with my highschool back in grade 10). Also used to be obsessed with HTML and designing my layouts. I recently started a video account on youtube.

The whole designing your own website blog was soo popular back in the day. I can't find any of those sites anymore though. Lots of fun. |

Some people I knew were so awful at designing, they would take an image and tile it as their background... "the tile effect" I used to troll their accounts for it lol. Though when I first started, I thought hot pink font on black background was cool haha |

LOL. Yeah, I hear ya. I wasn't too hot when I started out either. It was funniest when people I met told me they were going to go into graphic designing professionally and I was like "Right....." haha. |
