And if you do...how many do you have? C'mon, be honest.lol
What do you use it for? Is it anonymous? Is it obvious who you are and you have real-life friends who comment/read?
Do you raise matters of religion?
Do you do a thousand memes?lol.

I'm just curious.........

Only my blog on CF! ;)

It sounds like fun, but I don't really have the time to keep up a full time blog, much less several. I barely have time for eating and sleeping! But I do make a habit of checking the blogs of friends. It's a good way to find out what's going on inside their heads.

I started keeping one several months ago and I really enjoy it. :) I do have real-life friends to read and comment on it. I don't always blog every day, but I try to blog pretty frequently. My blog is filled with everyday things that happen to me and weird things I think about. There's nothing very deep in it.

I have a couple of blogs...one for my high school friends and one for my college friends and then just a general one as well!! I don't upset all the time, but when someone big happens I try to keep in touch with people, I use it as a means to stay up with old and new friends!! I have real life friends who read then and comment but they are more for myself, so I can remember the big events that happen in my life!!

I have no blog at all and I don't even plant to have one! I started to write a journal several years ago, but I couldn't run it for longer then a couple of months... I think I just have too many things happening in my life so I have no time and patient to write them down...

I have two blogs, not including my cf blog. The other two, people that i know in real life will read, but this one is "private" that meaning, I dont know any one personally who reads it. I keep a journal too. Hey, I have many thoughts :). And I find that i write most in my journal when I have a lot going on in my life.

I should probably answer my own question.lol

I have a Livejournal (online journal) that I've had for about a year. I have tried my whole life to keep a paper journal, but I never manage to keep it updated, or I fill it with personal stuff and feel embarrassed about it, and then I'm always worried about somebody finding it, so I tear the pages out and throw them away.

What I like about my online journal is that i can lock entries so that only friends or only i can see them, so i can pour my heart out or recount bad/embarrassing things and have access to them but no-one else does!! Heh heh!

Most of my entries in my online journal are open to everyone though, and I keep in regular contact with a lot of real life friends this way. I'm a little self conscious about mentioning religious matters, mainly i guess coz i dont really discuss that sort of stuff with my friends.

I didn't realise til a few days ago that CF has its own blogging!! Yay! I might start one relating to my Christian walk. So i can look back and see what a tool i am/was. lol. And how much I've grown.

Yes, I have 4 blogs :eek: (my main blog is linked in my profile) they are all on different sites, but I mainly post the same thing on all of them. I use it to keep my friends up to date on what is going on in my life. Things that are on my mind, things that are bothering me, things that excite me, just whatever comes to mind, I write about. I have posted poems on some of my blogs. Yes, it is obvious who I am to my friends, I try and protect my identity while on the internet because of what my part-time job is... I also talk a lot about my job on there! The only reason I really blog is so that my real life friends can read it and comment on it. If they didn't read it, I probably would stop posting.... it also opens the door to meeting new people around the world!

I talk about how God is impacting my life, and different things about faith.

oh me and my blogs...... :blush:

I had HEAPS on xanga.com (not all at the same time) but I kept having to leave them because I got in too deep with the eating disorder groups and it wasn't doing my health very good.

I had a myspace one for about 1 day.

I've had 3 bloggers but they have all been shut down.

Now I have mine on CF, just started today. Hopefully it goes for a while! I need somewhere to rant and to let it all out, otherwise I tend to get depressed and upset. Plus it seemed "safe" - I wouldn't have people commenting saying, "Cmon, don't eat, you can do it..."

They have all been anonymous apart from the myspace one, which didn't count as it was only one post to say hi and that was it.

Anyway...enough ranting (now you see why I need a blog!!!) :hug:

just one.

What do you use it for? Is it anonymous? Is it obvious who you are and you have real-life friends who comment/read?
mainly to throw in thoughts that i find worth preserving, my writing exercises and things that make me angry or sad or happy.

Do you raise matters of religion?
when i write about my spiritual experiences. Does that count? i recently got some thought provoking responses to one such entry. I'm glad to know there're christians or christian-like agnostic around.

no, it's not anonymous, and it's usually read by my writing friends met through the net.

Do you do a thousand memes?lol.
nope, whenever the mood strikes.
