Why Would You NOT Blog?

Following yesterday’s post (and months of posts really) about how easy Posterous makes blogging, why would you NOT blog? Seriously it’s so freaking easy?

If sending an email is too tough, check out Tumblr. Pulling an RSS feed doesn’t get any easier. Check out my music blog http://tacanderson.tumblr.com/. The only thing I have to do is use the bookmark song feature for songs I like in Pandora or tags certain bookmarks in my Diigo as ‘music’.

It doesn’t get any easier than that!!!

I know, you think you have to have something really important to say. That’s just plain stupid. Start writing and posting and you’ll come up with good stuff to say. You’re not going for a book deal you’re learning and engaging with people. It’s the online version of what you do every day.

You don’t even need a blog to blog. Flickr, FriendFeed, Delicious, StumbleUpon and even Google Reader shared items have “blogs”.

If for some reason you still don’t have a blog start with Delicious. Start bookmarking and curating interesting content. We can work with you from there.

    I think there may be a bit of confirmation bias, in that a lot of folks in the MarComm/Tech world have a natural propensity toward writing that the general populace doesn't. Some people just don't have a passion for it, and the ease of the tools (hey, pen and paper is even easier, doesn't mean everyone uses 'em) doesn't have as much of an effect on people's interest as one might think.

    That said, the technical barriers to 'just starting' have never been lower than right now.

    Agreed but my point is that “to blog” doesn't even mean you have to write anymore. My music blog is a blog and I don't have to write a single word. If writing isn't “your thing” then importing a feed into Tumblr only requires you curate the content you are already reading.

    I know this is still too much for some but at what point does getting dressed or bathing become to much work?
