Why I started to blog

Well, you know how you can write wikipedia articles on various topics, and make web pages on various topics? Also, you can go into news groups or other online groups and talk about various topics? Ok, with all these freedoms to talk about various topics, one form of expression is missing - just talking in general about what you feel and think. The main reason I thought about starting a blog was because there are certain opinions I have formed by listening to other people's opinions and thinking about them. But, there was no way to express these random opinions or ideas about various general topics. The blog is an outlet to do this - you can basically express all those things you want to say that don't fit neatly into particular topics on diverse discussion groups or web pages.
