I love blogs and had a look at all that are featured here. Thank you to those who have communicated them.
I have one which is very personal and multiple others which range from grammar notes to book review to translation site to a literary translation adventure.

Yes, my blog is at http://language-mystery.blogspot.com/
And I am even on Twitter: @Languagemystery
However, I do not use them for constant chatter. Instead, I only post when I feel I have something meaningful to say. On Twitter that is every few days, on the blog it is about every three to six weeks.
Topics I have covered on my blog include:

I love writing which is one reason why I became a translator in the first place. So, one day last year I started off with some small blog entries because it was one of the features offered by the website host where I had this small website I did for a celebrity. Because I really liked it, I started writing my personal blog on Wordpress. I don't care if anyone reads it to be honest. It's just a fun way of keeping notes of what's important to me at a certain time. A bit like writing a diary which ...

Because I really liked it, I started writing my personal blog on Wordpress. I don't care if anyone reads it to be honest. It's just a fun way of keeping notes of what's important to me at a certain time. A bit like writing a diary which I did for many years.
When I started my professional website a blog was again one of the features offered so I started writing a blog there, too. This is more in regards to translations and I don't want my clients to read what's going on in my personal life so I separate this. It's also a good way of posting news about my company etc. But then, I must admit that I don't update it very often.
Last but not least I changed the website host for my celeb fan website and started using a software which allows me to write a blog entry and it publishes it directly onto the webite. If a lot is going on in the life of my two celebs, then I have a lot to write about. ▲ Collapse

Having a blog is, in my opinion, exhibiting yourself to people you not necessarily want to share your knowledge/ experience/ emotions with. I prefer participating in discussions, polls and forums. Besides, blogs appear to me as an artificial form of expressing yourself when you don't have nobody to talk with. People establish blogs, become involved in writing and forget how important and beneficial the real interaction between human beings is. Writing a blog can be fun and also can improve one's...

People establish blogs, become involved in writing and forget how important and beneficial the real interaction between human beings is. Writing a blog can be fun and also can improve one's writing skills but it shouldn't become more important than real life. Don't forget about traditional diaries:) ▲ Collapse
