What should I blog about?

Asked by rguest (201points) December 26th, 2009

i just saw the movie Julie and Julia, and it made me interested in blogging. Not for the book or movie deals. It just looked like fun. Anyone have any ideas as to what sort of blog I should start? What is something needed or that would be interesting? I’m in new york city, so it could focused on new york. Help? Thanks!

blogging about New York is a great idea! Just blog about the people you see, fights, crimes, and other very interesting things. Maybe say things on your blog that people outside of the state aren’t familiar with. I find the lingo and accent very interesting. You could also use pictures!

This would be a good time for research. Do you read blogs already? Which ones and why do you like them? What’s their layout? If they have comments, how do they look? Do they have one topic or many jumbled together? Do you want a photoblog, a writing blog or a diary blog?

Figure out something you like and can keep at for a while.

I have a blog over at MySpace about my DAILY life…

If I am pissed off or upset ; the entire world knows !

If I am feeling good etc… the entire world knows about my feelings and why….

I even post jokes from time to time ; like YESTERDAY, I posted: “Little Johnny’s letter to Santa Clause , written on December 26th… AND ; Santa’s reply !! They both have some language ; BUT are very FUNNY !!

So post about whatever YOU feel like writting about… Just make sure that you don’t give out enought to let someone know where you live exactly etc…

I have a tumblr that I use as my lifestream..but I was looking for something that would get other people that don’t know me involved and interested. I love reading blogs about food and cool places, but I feel like there are so many of those, that another would just get lost in the pile.

When you’re with someone you feel comfortable with, what can you talk about excitedly for 15–20 minutes straight? Write abut that.

Find a topic that you love and remember the cardinal rule for writers.

Pity the reader.

About your life? Blogging prettymuch allows you to post anything excluding porns, military secrets, company secrets, etc. etc.. You could post your mood, your day, your complaints and so on.
For example, on my blog, I have a scrapbook for interesting news articles, thread for my daily schedule, diary and “Junk Notes” on which I write whatever that comes to mind :)

Missed the edit window.
My blog is a doodle blog. I’ve tried a few different things and this is the best for me. Maybe you can grab a blog and just play around with it and see what sticks.
