In last few months I have had many interesting stuff nudging my brain. Things from Gandhigiri, Super fast prototyping, pattern recognition, moondust the first trance festival of India, cops and corruption, but whenever I sit down to write about this, I feel a complete lack of motivation. My brain struggles to understand why you would be interested in my yapping.
Let’s be honest here, I write blogs for you. I like when you comment on them, when you praise them and even when you shred them into pieces. I like getting your viewpoints as well as giving you mine.
Few days back I was gulping some pints at a friends place and all three of us had very interesting view points on practically every topic we talked on – Democracy, Genetic hard wiring, Joe Stariani etc. The more I gulped the more I realized that generalization is the mother of all stupidity and that there is no way to convince a drunk. :)
Let’s try few generalizations and see how wrong they are:
1. All shows on Sony Television are crap.
2. Females are horrible drivers.
3. Nokia handsets are the best.
4. Shedding clothes is the only was to break into Bollywood.
5. Bollywood is about movies :)
The point that I am getting too is whatever – really; whatever I write here will be agreed upon, disagreed, liked, hated, shouted, screamed, cheered and commented. (of course unless I am stating scientific facts; in which case it holds true; but hey I know people who are ready to go upto the challenge of proving Einstein wrong but that is a whole different story.)
Therefore all I need to do is initiate any topic, give it a view point, add some facts and garnish it with assumptions and I have a juicy post ready. Gee Sumit Generalization!!!! Oops my bad. Consider the above as my recipe for a blog post
So what makes you blog, what is your view point on blogging and do you think there are things like good blog and bad blog or maybe a good blog post vs. a bad one?
