Boredom Blogs

It's not that I run out ideas for things to write about, but rather I have a bit of curiosity for what other people write about. Yes, from time to time I usually read other people's blogs, scrolling across the hundreds of titles looking for one that may catch my eye. Sometimes I'll read an interesting entry, but most of the time they're just tripe.

And then there are boredom blogs. These I don't even regard in the category of good or bad, entertaining or boring, they just suck.

Now I know that application of the description "suck" is thrown about quit liberally in this day and age, but it does fit. Too often people take the time to update their blog with out updating it. "Today I'm bored, there's nothing going on, just thought I'd write about it." let's be honest this is no fun for any reader, come to think of it it's no fun for the author as well, after all they just admitted it. blogs and journals should interesting, even if the interest is nothing more than remote. It is a standard guideline that when you write you should interest your audience, get them involved, and never ever bore them. In that aspect these aspects fail.

No matter how boring your day is, it is only as interesting as you are. So please keep this in mind if you are blogging, to leave out the boredom... And yes, the irony of my entry has not eluded me.
