Title: Re: new to myspace Post by: Rainbow on May 23, 2007, 08:41:20 PM I just don't get the point of these blog things, I have read a few blogs on there and wonder are people really that interested in what someone has had for breakfast, or the latest ins and outs of your last break up, how long its taken to get from one part of the country to the other and how much your coffee costs at the service station?
In my day we wrote in a diary, these were often kept somewhere safe and private for no one else to see, all our emotional stuff, all the people who had pissed us off was not branded across the web for all and sundry to read. I say to these blog writers get a life, get out there and have a bit of fun, don't fret that you haven't done your latest update, and if you do continue with these make sure that what you are writing doesn't end up in a court of law!! Title: Re: new to myspace Post by: littlemissC on May 23, 2007, 08:57:19 PM wtf is that supposed to mean.get a life?if you read it it clearly tells you what i do with my life.like looking after my children,working and when i can playing poker.if you dont want to read it dont,but there is no need to be rude about it.
thanks for your comments FRAN Title: Re: new to myspace Post by: Rainbow on May 23, 2007, 09:01:52 PM I haven't read yours I'm just making an overall comment, I'm aware some people love blogs but personally I just don't see the point
Title: Re: new to myspace Post by: tikay on May 23, 2007, 09:13:11 PM Many folks write blogs, many more read them. It's a modern thing, but it does nobody any harm, & Fran is a sweet girl, I don't think it's right to suggest she & others like her "get a life". It's true, in our day we did it different, but the kids do lots of things different these days, & as long as it does no harm, why not? Blog on, Fran! Title: Re: new to myspace Post by: RED-DOG on May 23, 2007, 09:13:27 PM In my day we wrote in a diary, these were often kept somewhere safe and private for no one else to see, all our emotional stuff, all the people who had pissed us off was not branded across the web for all and sundry to read. This might have been great advice except for the fact that it's branded across the web for all and sundry to read.

Title: Re: new to myspace Post by: Rainbow on May 23, 2007, 09:21:03 PM but it does nobody any harm Are you sure? I feel that some things that I have read on this blogs could upset people, I have witnessed custody and financial fights over children, slanderous comments about others, if you have a failed relationship then that person might not be right for you but why trash someone across the net....So I don't feel these blogs are always harmless fun Title: Re: new to myspace Post by: Claw75 on May 23, 2007, 09:23:10 PM but it does nobody any harm Are you sure?

I've read things on blogs that I'm sure have ended up in court. Title: Re: new to myspace Post by: Bongo on May 23, 2007, 09:23:24 PM Surely that's the fault of the person, not the medium they are using to convey the message?
Title: Re: new to myspace Post by: Rainbow on May 23, 2007, 09:30:16 PM Surely that's the fault of the person, not the medium they are using to convey the message? Yes I agree I can see why teenagers would enjoy this kind of thing but I really couldn't see my friends catching up with my life by reading a blog, they would probably pick up the phone or meet me in the pub Each to their own I say, but I still just don't get it, maybe this thread will convert me.......who knows Title: Re: new to myspace Post by: littlemissC on May 23, 2007, 09:32:25 PM shes not getting on at the mediums,just one blog in particular.take your issues up with the person,not me or other people who are just getting on with their own thing.
i think thats enough now. Title: Re: new to myspace Post by: nirvana on May 23, 2007, 09:37:01 PM I can imagine negative uses and many positive uses; catharsis, a little bit of self appreciation stopping short of narcissm, but mainly I find it a fantastic medium to find out what my kids are doing and to find girlfriends of my 18 yr old son adding comments to a photo of me:
"your dad is well good looking, I would ;-)" Made an old man feel good Title: Re: new to myspace Post by: Rainbow on May 23, 2007, 09:38:26 PM shes not getting on at the mediums,just one blog in particular.take your issues up with the person,not me or other people who are just getting on with their own thing. i think thats enough now. This is an open forum, its seldom we all agree with the items discussed, I have just pointed out some negative issues with these sites, like my previous post said I am waiting to be converted into seeing the positives and i'm sure there must be some out there or myspace would not be so popular Title: Re: new to myspace Post by: barhell on May 23, 2007, 09:40:27 PM If you don't like blogs don't read them.
If you don't like fish stay away from Kev in Tourneys. Marmite you either love it or hate? The choice is yours the intranet has lots of things on you either like or dislike only you can filter for your personal likes.

Title: Re: new to myspace Post by: littlemissC on May 23, 2007, 09:43:56 PM well im 26,so maybe im young enough to get away with it

Got up at 6.15, jumped in shower and got ready for work, left house 7.15 and argued with Poppet on way to work about washing up Got to work made a cuppa and logged on, read some emails and awaited the arrival of my team team arrived 8.30 and were rather distressed that they had new phones on their desks i calmed them down and showed them how to use the new phones Payment run failed today so we had a bit of tension trying to get suppliers paid Had a few texts and emails through day from my new man!

The trouble is blogs, forums youtube all of these things need to be censored by yourself. i only read half of the threads on the forums i go on as i have no interest in the other half. Youtube has some lovely vids of women in high heels revving cars (don't ask me how i know, but it's very popular apparantly) but if you've seen it once you don't need to see it again(unless it floats your boat or revs your engine). Pab said in his thread about his blog yesterday "Some blogs i read seem to be one long moan, or others that only get updated once every 3 months when the author has a nice touch, hopefully mine wont be like that but only time will tell" again it's all about seperating the wheat from the chaf.

Being 46, I also am from the days we kept diaries which were kept secret. Think of this: How many people, especially youngsters who, having committed suicide where later found to have had a diary, however because no-one seen their writings those close to them were unaware there was a problem and were unable to help. The daughter of a friend of ours was found to have a blog, detailing her difficulties at school and bullying etc. She had mentioned feeling suicidal and that she was sick of her life. A friend of hers made this known to her family and action was taken to help this lass. She graduated in law last year. Thank you for blogs is what I say.

Title: Re: new to myspace Post by: Sark79 on May 23, 2007, 10:09:58 PM had something to eat What did you have to eat? :D I am just joking of course. I like some blogs and read a few from the forum from time to time. I also read a blog of a guy who is in his first season of motor racing purely because I wanted to do this when I was younger. I absolutely hate it when readers leave nasty comments on peoples blogs and decide to click the anonymous box, if you want to take a pop at someone it should be done out in the open rather than hidden. So many idiots say some whacked out things on the sbrugby blog, it is jealousy more than anything I think Title: Re: new to myspace Post by: littlemissC on May 23, 2007, 10:12:51 PM I just don't get the point of these blog things, I have read a few blogs on there and wonder are people really that interested in what someone has had for breakfast, or the latest ins and outs of your last break up, how long its taken to get from one part of the country to the other and how much your coffee costs at the service station?

In th example you cite, it's not so much "get a ife" as "save a life"! They are harmless, nobody is forced to write them, nobody is forced to read them. We - many of us - read blogs by folks who we admire, or have interesting lives. Thewy's blog is a great read, as Camel's used to be pre-Jake-hood, & Paul Phillips has a real stonker of a blog. I love 'em - the ones that interest me. Other folks watch junk TV, I prefer to read non-fiction, of every variety. Nature, science, blogs. Oh, & trains. Lots of them.

Fascinating. http://blondepoker.com/forum/index.php?topic=23293.0 this post details your epic attempt to make posts on an internet forum. A real battle of will and wit, but one you managed to overcome. http://blondepoker.com/forum/index.php?topic=22255.0 this one tells us of your trimphant booking of a holiday. Let the good times roll http://blondepoker.com/forum/index.php?topic=21433.0 this one alerts us to the glorfying news that you have joined the forum under a new name, lest we yearn too much for the lost posts of poppetsmum http://blondepoker.com/forum/index.php?topic=22043.0 hey look, its another spring cleaning thread! It's like the Industrial Steam Turbine calling the Kettle pisch. :D Methinks someone is boxing in the wrong divison. Title: Re: new to myspace Post by: londonpokergirl on May 24, 2007, 03:43:32 AM thanks geo,and thanks to everyone else who gets why the post was started.most people who have met me know that im an open,friendly person and i only started the blog cause i cant talk to everyone all the time. I LOVE BLONDE you go girl :) blogging is a great way to get things off your chest .... whether its a bad beat, life experience or just a good old moan get it out in the open Title: Re: new to myspace Post by: Mango99 on May 24, 2007, 04:42:46 AM Good luck with the myspace thing :)
I also write an occasional blog on myspace, though as someone pointed out above, I'm becoming less motivated to carry on with it. It was quite a nice touch to see a few of my mates had subscribed to it though lol. For me, it's really a place to keep a record of what I have (or have not) achieved in the world of poker. It's also a nice place to add video clips and photos, and ... It's also apparently pretty good for dating! :) Some blogs entries (e.g. bluescouse's road to ruin, ZeeJustin coming clean over cheating online, Dan Carter detailing his rise to the top) are absolute class and well worth a read. There are several diamonds hidden in the rough. Poker-wise they can be another useful resource to add to the forums and books, and give a good insight into the mind of the blogger. However, be warned!! It can be highly addictive messing around on myspace, so look out lol :) Don't let anyone tell you about the wonders of facebook - that'll be another 3 months lost!! :D Title: Re: new to myspace Post by: RED-DOG on May 24, 2007, 08:40:18 AM Hmmmm... facebook you say......

However I'd never suggest people shouldn't do it.
people should express themselves in whatever medium they choose and as loudly or quietly as the feel they need to. enjoy writing your blog Fran, whether anyone reads it or not (though I'm sure they will) Title: Re: new to myspace Post by: Pab on May 24, 2007, 01:47:53 PM I just don't get the point of these blog things, I have read a few blogs on there and wonder are people really that interested in what someone has had for breakfast, or the latest ins and outs of your last break up, how long its taken to get from one part of the country to the other and how much your coffee costs at the service station? In my day we wrote in a diary, these were often kept somewhere safe and private for no one else to see, all our emotional stuff, all the people who had pissed us off was not branded across the web for all and sundry to read. I say to these blog writers get a life, get out there and have a bit of fun, don't fret that you haven't done your latest update, and if you do continue with these make sure that what you are writing doesn't end up in a court of law!! so, just to clarify, you dont see the point of putting pointless information out into the open domain for people that you dont know to read? hmmm, lets see: http://blondepoker.com/forum/index.php?topic=23241.0 this post tells us that you are going to do the spring cleaning.

It is a statement of existence. This is me and this is what I do.....just like me writing "MANTIS WAS HERE" somewhere in the world.
Whether this is particularly interesting or entertaining to someone else is hardly important. Your life is special to you and keeping everyone in the dark about every aspect of your personal life is being a bit introverted. Imagine Martin Luther King announcing..."I HAD A DREAM.......but it's a bit personal so I don't want to talk about it!" Title: Re: new to myspace Post by: Royal Flush on May 24, 2007, 03:44:25 PM First off, myspace is old news, Facebook is the place to be.
Rainbow you make me laugh, i can't believe you all fell for her wind-up, like she would really criticise people for posting inane drivel about their lives on their own site when she does the same on a poker forum read by thousands. Well done Rainbow you got 'em good! Title: Re: new to myspace Post by: chippieleicester on May 24, 2007, 03:53:41 PM Fran i'm with you babe who loves yur xxxxx
Title: Re: new to myspace Post by: Jon MW on May 24, 2007, 05:24:39 PM To make a blog entertaining then I think people have to get away from the idea of the blog just being an online diary. Instead it should be regarded more like online letter writing - if something is too dull to put in a letter, then it shouldn't be put in a blog.
But if you just want to get things off your chest then it doesn't matter what you write in your blog.
