What a To Do, or What to do!?

I have tried blogging before.  First on MySpace (I'm sorry, My Who?!) several years ago when it was THE big thing in social networking. I didn't last long.  My second attempt was only last year, at around this time of year. I hope that this time, I will continue, and that I have a larger audience than the 1 person who subscribed last year!

So, what to write about.  I've put a lot of thought into this... and come to no decision what so ever. :(

Should I write about myself and my life?  I'm not good with discussing personal and private stuff in public.  Perhaps that isn't such a good idea.

Should I write about the world, the events going on in it, and my opinion on them?  This might be a good idea, but isn't that what most people do?  Also, I don't want it to turn into a "this is what I think should happen" set of posts.  I'm not trying to form a government!!

Should I write about my travels?  Well, most of my travelling has been and gone.  The USA, Paris, etc.  I have some yet to come (well a lot more to come I hope), but other people do this (including one of my readers) and I don't want to copy that idea.

What about a combination of all three?  Just post as and when I get an idea or an opinion that I feel strongly about.  Maybe!  (Your comments, suggestions and opinions would be welcomed)  For now, as I am STILL unemployed and struggling to fill my days, it will give me something to do!

So next issue is why am I doing the blog?  I'm an old fashioned old bugger, and have decided that I will probably be leaving Facebook in the early part of next year.  I just feel its not for me anymore.  Facebook is great when you are 18 and have 2 million friends at University.  Some people still do, and still need to keep up with them all in the way that Facebook allows you to do.  For me, in the real world, I have a close group of good friends, a wider set of acquaintances, and I don't really care what the rest of the world is doing!

My issue with Facebook is that you know EVERYTHING that your friends are doing 24/7.  There are pictures posted of each and every event to top it all.  My question is: When you meet people (shock horror, yes you can actually meet people in the real world) for a drink or meal, what do you talk about?  You have been kept up to date with it all via Facebook, and seen the pictures already.  Facebook kills off human conversation.  I don't like that.

So that's my take on it all.  (First Blog done and dusted!)
