Survey says

“According to a recent survey for AOL. 48.7% of the bloggers said that they blog for therapeutic reasons, while 40.8% do it to keep in touch with friends and family. In sharp contrast, only 7.5% wanted to draw attention to political topics, and 16.2% related it to an interest in journalism.”
So why do I blog? (Wait a second…I think a blog is a noun, not a verb. I post to my blog, “post” being the verb.)  OK, now that the grammar lesson is out of the way…why do I post to my blog?

I’m definitely in tune with the majority, but I think the reasons don’t stand by themselves. They are intertwined. My keeping in touch with family and friends is therapeutic. My reasons? All of the above in equal amounts.
