Blogs Without A Narrative

I don’t have a problem with a picture or video blog, but why not make a decent blog of it? You should really treat your readers with a bit more respect.scold

Don’t just dump a photo in your blog for us to guess what you’re trying to convey to us. Tell us something about the photo or video. What does it mean to you? Share your thoughts on it.daydream

Or are you too scared to write something because it may give away something about yourself?laugh

You don’t have to write much. Just tell us your reflections on it, or maybe just a descriptive heading for each pic or video.idea

This may sound like criticism but it is meant to be constructive and not aimed at anybody specific. Some of you will probably think that I should mind my own business and tell me to worry about my own blog. And you’d be perfectly right, but being the busy body I am, I just had to poke my nose into it.mumbling

But then again, it is all opinion and, as things stand, it is just mine. So do with it whatever you want. You can even print it on soft paper to use it in the toilet.tongue

I don't mind the picture or video blogs, but the inscrutable one liners giving out about something. laugh

Catfoot, I'm guilty as charged I guess....

Most time, I just post a video and disabled comments. cool
I accept their dimension. I would not expect any narrative from photographers, painters or cartoonists; even though context would illuminate their expression. hole
I was just lurking hole hole hole around most time laugh

Hi KN
I don't mind one-liners... as long as it tells a story. It requires talent to cram a plot into one line.laugh

hug wave
There aren't a lot with a talent like this. laugh
Hi DC
Do you? As I said I had nobody specific in mind when I wrote the blog. It just struck me as ... what shall I call it... incomplete?dunno

Hi Bhadra
I would not expect any narrative from photographers, painters or cartoonists either, but we're not dealing with the such here. We're talking about blogs. But yes, your view is noted. Like I was entitled to express my opinion, you are entitled to yours. We don't have to agree with everything to get along.grin
cheers wave

You were spying on us!!detective

Do you still employ those stupid dogs you had last time?

I guess you're right. Maybe we must ask them to elaborate a bit on the second line.laugh

Cat,

Nowadays, we have to take whatever we have here...blogs in any forms and sizes works for melaugh
Hi Crazy,
Hmm, we have so few blogs of late, I suppose we should not be choosy.
laugh hug wave
Cat do you think DC will ever get over our caper? She sure holds a grudge! I think we should forgive her for holding a grudge! I am not mad at her! How about you Cat?cheers
Hi Crazy,
Ok, I'm back on. Don't know for how long. My contract expires at the end of May. I'm signing up with another ISP the moment it expires. I'm so sick of waiting for pages and being timed out, it's unreal.frustrated
hug wave
OK DC'
I forgive you unconditionally. Please come back home.innocent
hug
Right Jim
I have forgiven her. Do you think it will work?

Cat,

just make sure, the one you'll get is better than what you have one. For me, this is my 3rdlaugh The first one always gave me bad connections, can't even blog properlydoh laugh The 2nd one wasn't so bad, then I heard another one that offers better connection, I signed a two year contract right way...was so happy about it for 2 months, then they started blocking the Magic Jack connection which is very important to me when I work at home, lucky I still have the 2nd one ( it's wireless) had it reconnected...then I realized I signed a 2 year contract with the 3rd, have no choice but to use it, mainly for personal use so it's OK and luckily they unblocked Magic Jack after blocking it for few days... but have keep the 2nd in case they block my Magic Jack again thodoh laugh
My friend.
Will very hard reach with your opinion.
I think not many will understand.
I have read - doesn't mean what has understood.
I have understood - doesn't mean that has approved.laugh

Crazy,
I can just hope. The only way to get a decent data bundle at a good rate is with a 2 year contract. Mind you, it cannot be worse than what I have now. doh

Hi Ummka
Don't worry about that. What is said and what is understood is often two different things.laugh

Ummka
Make mine a double. I'm going to have a heart attack with this internet connection. doh

Hi Jim, of course, I think because they missed the big bill rolling on the floor laughing

Cat you are right. I think the remaking is a better idea. I meant it that way. I just get the whole gist of the topic and repost it and I id get very different views on the two post that I had long time ago and just reposted it last year.wine
Hi Lindsy
Quite so.
I don't even read the old blog. I don't want to be influenced by it. I only reuse the topic and I want to write about the topic as I feel at the time.

However, sometimes when I don't have the time to write a blog, I will use an old blog with very few or no changes. If I feel that the blog no longer reflects my sentiments, I will pick another and redo the blog at a later stage when I have the time.professor
