    Default Blog Roll

    You can scarcely watch a political piece on television about elections without everyone harping on about the 'Blogosphere' that - from what I gather - everybody apart from myself is immersed in 24/7.

    Do you read any blogs at all? Do you keep one? I'm referring to a blog rather than an online journal, really.

    I read some of the BBC blogs now and again, but only when I feel like it. The only one I regularly check politicalbetting.com because I find elections and opinion polling interesting. I also find that Mike Smithson makes provides very accurate and interesting analysis of British politics. It's the only one I can be bothered to check on a daily basis though. It does have a nasty side effect of making me want to gamble, however...

    I don't read any blogs at the moment. There were a few I read back when I was learning to be a hunter (when I still played WoW). Pike's was among those, because it was probably one of the most informative and fun blogs I could find. I think it counts as a blog.

    I can honestly say I've read 2 blog post in my entire life.

    It's just not interesting. But the fact I don't have active livejournal/hyves/facebook accounts (or accounts at all!) could explain it.

    I don't have enough to say to make blogs. I guess I technically made 2 at omgmygame, but they were utter nonsense. I only made them because the site was starting out and needed some content. I don't read any either. Yo mama.

    I read two blogs regularly: The Agitator and Pharyngula. Both are excellent.

    As for maintaining, I suppose you could count Stuff That Looks Like Jesus (owned by Dr Unne), if a picture-and-commentary blog of pareidolia counts ("pareidolia" is very difficult to spell right consistently, FYI).

    I like humor blogs, such as the ones run by Tucker Max on Festeringass.com. My favorite blog is Gaijin Smash, the one run by Az about Japanese school children. That aside, I really cba.

    I read a bunch of video game, anime and general Japanese pop culture blogs. If I don't check my Google Reader for a few hours I can have over 100 new things to read.

    I don't really read every single one though. Just like this site, I skim over a lot and look at something that catches my attention.

    I've tried many times to blog, but it just doesn't happen. Twitter is pretty great though for random thoughts.

    I have a blog and I follow a few others. My blog is basically about my theatre exploits, movie reviews, etc. Nothing terribly exciting.
