great points, but there are people who blog for the pure attention -a self absorbness. i remember when i first started on LJ there were too many blogggers out there who just screamed "friend me, friend me" along with the "rate me" requests. amoung those there were those who you had to jump through hoops to friend and they even mentioned they didn't read much on their friends list.
but when you find blogs centered around a theme, they tend to hold more conversation and interesting discussion on the topics (off the top i think of all the yoga blogs and communities). although even with the yoga blogs i find some splits between the ashtangis and everyone else - which i've written about.
blogging fits because in today's age it is harder and harder to meet people in real life that have the same interests. yes you can go to a yoga class and meet people, but the majority of time people are running out because of their next life appoinment they have made rather than savoiring it.
and yes i focus on yoga in writing this because...well it's what got us to friend each other. otherwise i don't think i would have stumbled on your blog.
