Blogging for pleasure, blogging for fun An inventory

Bloggers use the blog to share thoughts and inspiration, some use the blog to reflect on life, while others use it for a business.  One blog that I find particularly inspirational is the N.B.Coop outlawpoetry site.  The beauty of the language used in this blog makes it a joy to read.  Another site, the Sewer Raccoon News, is published by a gentleman who specializes in day to day trivia, integrating pictures and poetry, along with articles on virtually any subject imaginable.  Because of the sheer enormity of available blogs, a search with a keyword will take you to the subject area of your choice.  An example is Theultimatefishing blog.   What most blogs have in common is that the blogger is interested in what he/she has to say.  It is up to the reader to search and find out if the blog is interesting.  It is almost an information overload, and the filtering and sorting is left up to the reader.  It can be a very time consuming process.  To enhance your searching, links to similar blogs are posted on the site, so you can bounce around as long as your schedule will allow....

  1. Can we combine good writing, daily trivia and learning? Why not? Of course, it does require a good writer. And a clever teacher who can combine these features.

    Did you know that all polar bears are left handed? Or is it left-pawed? And does that apply to the hind paw as well as the front paw? Or was this discovered by an autopsy of the brains? And "all" is a pretty strong statement? Might there be an undiscovered exception?
