I started blogging in 2008. At one time I had 5 blogs that I posted on quite regularly. So what happened? I think it was mostly Facebook and maybe a little Twitter thrown in. Instant messaging is the key. You write something on a blog and maybe someone will read it and maybe no one will. You put something on Facebook and immediately someone “likes” it.
I did keep one of my blogs going for over 12 years. Why did I keep it up? Spiritual Sundays was a blog where people could come and link a post on their blog. It was a very popular blog for several years. At one time 50 to 60 people would link there each week. I decided to close the blog recently because linking had fallen to an average of 12 links. Plus, I did get tired of posting every week.
So why am I writing this right now? Beats me. Probably nobody will read it. Who knows - I might even post something on one of my other blogs. Maybe not. If you are reading this, thank you.
