From Blogging To Microblogging
I find that there is a change of topics since the beginning of 2010. Instead of talking about blogs and websites, we are talking more about microblogging and social media.
Now the real question is what is the meaning of blogging in the new era? Do we have to wait for hours for someone to feedback for simply reply our questions?
With application like instead messaging and microblogging technology coming up fast and furious, you don’t have to WAIT!
For example Twitter, I use it to search for interesting story around the globe and the information travels faster than the news on my TV. I can ask any questions and just wait a few minutes before the answer (or somewhat near) pops up on my screen.
One down point is the limitation of just 140 characters. When I first use it, I found it difficult to put my questions or thoughts in 140 character space. I got annoyed and frustrated at times.
But there is a lesson for us all. Stop beating around the bush. Straight to the point and you are done. I can just make 5 to 10 tweets a day. That would be about 1400 characters. Congratulations! I just made half-length of my articles.
I never have to think about certain topics or subjects. I’m not sure if it’s just me. When I want to blog about something like my lifestyle or favourite food, I went blank. At one point, I knew I need to be on the topic all the time. Or maybe I don’t really have much to write.
With microblogging platform and 140 chars save my day. I find myself slowly moving toward twitter… but not away from blogging. I still love blogging.
At least I have to ‘private’ place to blog about something more intimidate
I can guarantee one day I may completely into microblogging. How about you my friend? Are you going from blogging to microblogging?
