I AM BACK.
I am back into writing, blogging, Video planning, and podcasts. Uff! Where have all these years disappeared? I missed writing articles, connecting, and helping people around.
At the beginning of 2000 - it was all blogs and we had very little social media. There was more connection between writing and reading. We built a large community and exchanged the same interests.
We wrote frequently, analyzed self-criticized improved and linked to others, and discovered new blogs. Life was simple and straightforward. We used free sites such as Blogger, yahoo, or any other websites that allowed us to set up a blog and connect to the world through our words. Then was the domain platform introduced and we purchased them still the expression of thoughts was through words and we connected to any part of the masses to whichever our writing category belonged.
CONNECTION WITH PEOPLE
We were all connected with each other. We never found anonymity in turn there was no comment section where they would deliberately provoke an argument.
With all the new social media websites - the microblogging era - consisted of only pictures and short messages. Personal messages and photos that we put on social media have lost their essence in writing.
Your PLATFORM YOUR CONTROL
Personal and professional blogging needs to be back in action. We need to take control of our blogging platforms. Twitter has seen its demise, and our relationship with social media platforms is changing daily. We are using these platforms to build our branding - what if tomorrow it disappears?. Where is our content, our data, our pictures? Our data will disappear when many of the social media organisations decide to close like ORKUT closed in early 2000.
We ensured we built a strong networking community around our favorite blogs, it was an exciting time - we socialized and exchanged knowledge across the tribe. Bloggers built an entire community around blogging that was more personalised. We have moved into a phase where people are engaged in a disguised self - turning out unacceptable. We have to step up, start writing, and build blogs back in action. Take ourselves more in control. We need a controlled system for the environment on the internet like on social media. Many technological tools allow us to keep unwanted unnecessary provokes giving us a path to continue our passion for writing and spreading our words across the globe.
