Blogs - My Experience, Thoughts

I've known about blogs for several years, but have held very little regard for them until somewhat recently. I became aware of them right about the time that EVERYBODY became aware of them, during the explosion that Rebecca Blood wrote about. I never considered the fact that if I actually searched for blogs that focused on things I was interested in, that I might like to read them. Instead, I thought to myself, "Why do I care what someone else, who is NOT an expert, thinks about anything?"

That viewpoint holds little weight anymore. Even though I still haven't really searched for blogs to read, and I still don't frequent any blogs, I admit that I might like to. With the amount of attention blogging receives these days, the really interesting and relevant ones are readily available. And to discredit my earlier thought, many of the popular bloggers actually are experts in what they're writing about.
