Blogging began in 1998 and I couldn’t tell you how many blogs there are out there now. I played around a bit on blogger.com, but didn’t really get into blogging seriously until I got bored with my site. Things were changing so rapidly in the web design world with XHTML and css becoming a necessity as well as PHP, that my site was becoming outdated and I couldn’t keep up with it, because every time something new came up, I’d have to change every page. There is still some useful stuff there by the way, but I now prefer blogging.

I tried another CMS program first for my tennis site, but then decided to up me fees with my host and go for a self-hosted word press blog. Now that required a steep learning curve just in itself.

As you would know if you follow my blog, I turned 60 this year and started up at the gym. But still, I needed intellectual stimulation. Yes I do the sudoku every day, code words, crosswords, killer sudoku and keep up with current events, but I needed more. Well, it seems blogging does just that for bloggers.

Some studies say that blogging fosters critical thinking and feelings of connection and that bloggers feel better about their situation.

US researchers say blogging makes us better thinkers and that blogging can be a powerful promotor of creative, intuitive and associational thinking.

Swinburne University in Melbourne did a study of bloggers and one of their cases said it made her saner. Another said that writing helped her through mental dilemmas as well as discussing them online. My post on Bill Henson’s photography has certainly done that.

Swinburne gives us examples of some of the bloggers’ blogs they interviewed. They are mostly Melbourne bloggers which is my city.
