Got Blog?

Sesungguhnya memang alam blog nih sungguh menagihkan. Since Sentraal Station was born and expanded day by day, I spend the first hour in my office just going through my favorite links in my blog and then jump to Sentraal Station for more 'kick'. So addicting that I go to Sentraal Station almost every hour (if I am not busy at work lah) to read more and more! Sungguh….sungguh menjadi satu problema untuk diriku! But I am not complaining!

Talk about blog world, I also notice phases of trends in the blog world. First came the Banner phase, our taukey banner and tukang pasang sungguh giat dengan business membuat dan memasang banner nih. Then came the song players phase (sorry my twin for making you get kicked out of tripod!). Everyone is scrambling to have their favorite songs on their blogs. Some would start when their blogs are uploaded, and the ones in the office would have to quickly turn off the speakers. Then came the Meme phase, everyone tagging each other like main kejar2. Oh and don’t forget them recipe blogs, growing like mushrooms (my best part, the recipe blogs). The spammers then started to attack the blogspace. So we all were setting up word verification before we could post anything on mose blogs. Errr, 'vgymklf' it can surely be very testing especially when the 'words' are longer and gets more cuvry! I wonder whats the next phase…

For those who have not been blogging, what are you waiting for? And for those who have been blogging, teruskan teruskan teruskan!

Haha. Very funny what you said about the word verification. (This particular comment's is "hrhhozdk"!!! I love blogging! I love blogging! So teruskan, I shall. Oh and you forgot to mention, signing up for whatever freebie you can find to sprus up your blog and all those trial and error sessions with your template that almost killed your blog. hehehe. BTW, who is your taukay banner and tukang pasang huh?

It was in the papers a couple of years ago, about mom bloggers. A fast growing trend in SG! But when I ask American friends, they are like, "What is a blog???" hahaa!

Oh yea, add to the list: photo blogs - another growing trend. ;)

after 5 yrs, i just felt like stopping and become a silent reader. haha.

but itu lagu2 ahhh, even me at home kelam kabut off speakers when it just goes booming lol.

but i think blogs has been better than irc chats. you bond with people from all over the world, gotta know their progress, peek of their lives etc, you get good friends too! heheeheh.
