Me, Blog?

Okay, I reluctantly followed the world of Blogging at first. I mean, doesn't the best writing get published in some mainstream fashion?

But then I became a fan of some blogs - especially David Sirota. And I love how the internet has helped grow a groundswell of grassroots attention on stories that the media previously ignored. These rank-and-file media consumers found a new way to raise awareness through blogs, and then I got it. The mainstream media doesn't always follow the stories it needs to follow without public demand, and blogging is an easy way to get at that.

I doubt I will garner such influence. To be honest, I doubt anyone will read my blog except a few friends and family members. That's awesome.

What sort of topics? Politics, pop culture (especially movie and celebrity news), and various items that pique my curiousity or ire.

But I keep thinking of things I wanna comment on - and want to find a way to become a better writer on these subjects. So if you have editorial comments on the way I write, bring it. I really wanna improve my writing style.

So, bring it! What do you think?
