I just recently looked at my blog, and I realized that I haven't had a post in over a year. That's a long time! I asked myself why, and I think the answer is that I only blogged as a way to put up cute, funny, or thought-provoking things. And a couple of pictures. Facebook allows me to do that, but I don't have to think as much. I don't have to put together a whole thesis or anything fancy, I can just post a couple of words and a picture. And, on Facebook, more people read my thoughts. I can see where keeping a blog on a particular subject is more worthwhile, bur for what I was using it for, I had to ask: Is Facebook taking the place of blogs?
