Cornerstone and Blogs

Hey, this is Zhongnan posting on Tim's blog. I noticed there has been a lack of posts, and I think Tim had more readers than I did, even though I posted over three times his volume. Go figure.

I was looking the title of this blog, and it caught my eye. The church I have been going to recently is called Cornerstone, and it is an Asian American Reformed church. What this means I don't know. The church itself is actually mostly Korean, and the only thing that strikes me as reforming is that it meets at 2 pm instead of in the morning, and the doxology is a bit different than the one I'm used to with.

Ok, that was pointless. I wonder who still looks at this to see if Tim posted anything. Actually, I wonder if people still see if anybody still posts stuff on xanga. Those were the good days, when online blogs were actually blogs -- people actually wrote stuff. Things like facebook and myspace has the capability of writing blogs, but nobody really uses it, and rarely do people ever actually read them.

And I have noticed a large decrease in the number of blogs going around. It seems xanga is the way kids in middle school talk, and once they reach high school myspace is used, and finally college kids use facebook. Myspace some people blog, but I don't really see any blogging done in facebook. It seems like a way to keep in touch. Even the tiny recognition of poking says something.

So what does silence mean? Are people just too busy to post? And how do you explain it. Of course, just because people don't write anything deep up doesn't mean they aren't changing and growing behind the scenes. People change in college when new experiences are thrust upon them, and nobody writes them down on blogs anymore. Of course, the mere act of writing about your life on a blog says something about your personality.

And this is what I wanted to talk about on "Zhongnan's Corner" -- why people write on blogs, and why its not even about honesty.

Whatever. Things that stop, I guess. Tim has stopped writing on his blog; I have stopped recording songs. I'm sure Tim still thinks about stuff that is worthy of writing, and I sure hope I write melodies that are worthy of recording. I think the change that occurs when one stops writing about blogs is that the change of what goes on in one life (of course, how could you tell anyway) -- rather, a change in one's perspective on it.
