By-Ashutosh Joshi

Today internet has become an important companion of every one. We use Internet for acquiring knowledge, education and everything we want to know and for anything we want to share or express in our own way.

Blogging is like our own Newspaper, which can be published anytime and there is no Government -registration required. We are writer, editor and publisher too. No body can reject our write-up unless we cross limit of social obligations. We don’t even require any specific qualification to run this media-magazine and we do not require any office or staff. Blogging is open for all. Anybody from anywhere in the world can start Blogging. And that’s the beauty of this special but creative source through internet.

What is Blogging?

 Blog is a short form of web-log and Blogging means writing through Internet where anyone can have Blog-website with web-address of our own choice and website can be operated by an individual with password facility. There are many web sites available which provide Blogging facility. Like -blogger.com;   wordpress.com    livejournal.com   godaday.com etc.

Blogging has a specialty of expressing our own views in our own style and language. Anyone can choose subject of interest and start blogging. Blogging gives us facility of opening multiple pages with different subjects also. One can use blogging as writing a book also and Book can be published and made available for readers. Internet provides us e-book facility also to market through-out the world. One can do Blogging without showing his / her identity also if desired. Moreover Blog-site has a facility also for readers to leave their comment on our write-ups that too with our choice only.

Why Blogging?

Writing daily diary is a hobby of many of us which helps us in expressing our thoughts in our own way. We write something we like or something we dislike too. By writing Diary we convey our feelings and try to reduce our mental stress. If we can not say something to others, we can write at least. In the same manner rather with better pattern we can do Blogging and if needed we can hide our identity. Most important and widely accepted benefit of Blogging is just enjoying freedom of writing anything you want. Writing on Social, Political or on any other subject will give us an identity and our views (on various good or bad incidents happening around) may be widely appreciated in Society and public as well.
