I am using the internet more than 10 years now. I used newsgroupes, bulletin boards, email, ... but blogs, never. I was asking myself "Why should I use a blog?". Nearly everything you can do with a blog you can also do with a bulletin board. But now I realized that its a completely different way of publishing as I cutted my bulletin board down to the funktionality of a blog. Now I nearly stoped publishing news on my bulletin board but I want to give this "blog-thing" a chance.
