How easy it is to get carried away with technology's cheap tricks. Infact,
the whole internet is synonym of blogging. It was so easy to publish

year we have to change it with something new. The new thing with all those
who can type on the internet is to 'blog'.

that he advises clients not to start them.
"People are just more casual in the stuff they put on the Internet," Wolf
said. "Recording one's thoughts can lead to problems for both the employer
and the employee because it becomes readily available for all to see."
...."

Just my thoughts.
