Self-Portrait.

This is a self-portrait.

A friend quoted a friend who said blogging is "vain and
exhausting and kinda pointless. "

Blogging is inherently exhibitionistic...so sure of course, it's vain.

It's exhausting...well..depends on how vain you are..heheh..and how much
effort u wildly dedicate to customizing, designin your blog, uploading
pix, etc etc.

As for blogging being "pointless?" Hmz...that I disagree.

But I would like to point out an interesting phenomenon.

As much as "Blogging" has been touted as
a new communcation technology with all these great grand powers...

Celebration, reward, and recognition,
still come in the form of traditional media.

E.g. - Book Deals. Magazine/Newspaper Columns.

A Blogger in the sense of a writer, "makes it" and "becomes successful"
when they get the traditional media to notice them, pay them,
and offer them a creative space on older media platforms...

It seems to work that way right?
