Whiteboy: read...

I saw this once before but it passed me by in a haze of Bloglines updates and I forgot to blog about it. Over at The Nonist they have a free downloadable pamphlet titled "What everyone should know about BLOG DEPRESSION". I am no stranger to this effect either. What? You thought all my content was lovingly well crafted social commentary and prose? Wrong! I can count the times I have thought of deleting my blog or changing the content totally on more than one tentacle! WhiteBoyBob will tell you all about that (and how). And since i got my iPod... well... what else do I have to write about? Blogs, like male prostitutes, come and go and even the giants of the blogosphere slip beneath the waves after dazzling us with their comedy and making us jealous with their volumous hit counters and subscriber numbers. The thing to remember is that "The Blog" is your own space. Own it and put a little of yourself out there. In a sad geeky way it has brought a little more happiness to my hum-drum life. Creativity is the key - whether it be photos, your reviews of the latest condiments or your latest rant about "that bloke that nearly knocked me off my bike on the way to work". Everyones life is interesting. Like the literature says: "No-one put a gun to your head. Blog for your own enjoyment or you're in trouble"
