I am a positive person however pregnancy hormones combined with endless problems with my ISP and other IT issues have now resulted in me venting my frustrations toward technologies that are supposed to make life better.
Like many people life is a bit of a juggling act and I find I am increasingly impatient and resentful towards things that I feel have wasted my time. Top of my current hit list is social media; I can’t stand it (there I’ve publicly said it). Although I agree with the concept of connecting people and increasing efficiency all I see is evidence of isolation, fake realities and time wasting.
I hate blogs. There are some exceptional, inspiring and action provoking blogs however the vast majority is just regurgitated rubbish.
I am tired of copy cat, unoriginal content, and who has the time or inclination to read blogs about bloggers referencing each other. I appreciate we can’t all have these genius, creative minds and there’s nothing wrong with bringing someone’s concepts to a wider audience but please at least have some opinion or slant on the work.
I just don’t see the point of boring blogs filled with Google friendly key words to drag suckers onto your website who will only leave just as quickly as they arrived. What a waste of company resources and everyone’s time!
So why do I love to blog? I have two reasons:
We want to humanise our business. Let you know we are real people with our own thoughts and ideas. We want to show you that we are not just another faceless competitor hiding behind technology.
Personally I do not regularly read blogs (although I am always keen to receive links to inspiring content) because I feel it clouds my originality. Blogging allows me time and space to think about our business and since doing it I have had more ideas for improving things then I ever have. For example right now I am reviewing how the technology we use can be further humanised.
If you’ve got nothing interesting to say then simply don’t say it and save everyone some time and money.
