A waste of time?

I was orkutting tonight when i came upon a link to a friend's blog. And on his blog he writes about how blogging is a waste of time and the same time can be put to constructive use. So true...I totally agree. Thinking and typing out these huge posts (i know the lengths of my posts are getting out of hand, i'll try and keep this one short) does really consume a lot of time. Time during which a true IITian is supposed to study or do something constructive, although no one does either :P.

But then why the hell do we all love to blog?

Personally, it is actually a good thing that i blog, i get to vent out my feelings and in general think about something i usually don't think about in an organized and structured manner, to put into words. Its also good once in a while to write something that comes straight from your imagination, hell the last time I did that before I started blogging was when i participated in a creative writing competition. And in any case,I know that if I don't blog and try to use my time i generally use for blogging constructively, the only constructive thing i will end up doing is watch a movie or something which again is nothing constructive. So here I am blogging away......Its certainly not a waste of time for me, nothing compared to the time i waste doing other things.

As for the blogging fever that has gripped the world, I don't really know the reason why. Ranting away about day to day happenings on a blog is really dumb and idiotic according to me. One should keep all that in a personal diary.

As for me, I write when anything comes to my mind....... my blog is more like my opinion about stuff.

Read it if you like.....
