I've been thinking recently about how much time I used to spend blogging, and reading other people's blogs. I had my faves, who I would read regularly - Kiki, Blakkat, Eleanor Bloom, Dot and Mars, Jacob, Original Mel, The Man at the Pub, Nerd Girl, and the Hungry Hungry Hypocrite...
Do any of us blog anymore?
What does this mean? Is blogging too time consuming, what with Facebook, Twitter and fuck knows what else to update? Is the Internet to full of random thoughts now? Is blogging not immediate enough anymore? What is going on?
I guess what I am trying to say is that I miss all the blogs that used to make my day better*.
*I am well aware that I have not blogged regularly for a very, very long time.

I have been thinking about the same thing! I also read other blogs less; it's no longer part of my regular routine. Because I am no longer a full time student I spend a lot less time at a computer (and have not checked google reader for months).
And also I have a partner - I think blogs for me were a substitute for someone to talk to. I was home all day studying alone and lived with flatmates who were varying degrees of talkative but all had their own lives. Now I spend 4 days a week constantly talking at work, and then come home and have someone else to talk to! And my partner gets all my best jokes so once I get a good reaction from him I don't bother to save them up for my blog!
AND I have started another blog, and sometimes write for a work one, and for one a work colleague has started.
I wish I was a better and more regular blogger again though...
