The Transition From Personal Diaries To Blogs




With tons of memes floating around the internet, I had a sudden idea to create exactly this one meme few days ago. I used one of the meme generating tools online to add text to the two photos then fused them together on paint. Here have a look!







Hysterical isn't it! Anyways moving on.


I am not going to explain the age hold habit of many folks maintaining a diary because it is a well known fact. Unless you were born in the 21st century, there is a high probability that you too have maintained atleast few diary notes if not a full-fledged diary. And mostly everyone, which pretty much includes myself too, used to be so completely secretive about our diaries; as if the notion and art of hiding diaries was encoded in our DNAs itself. Some even went ahead and locked their diaries with actual locks. Considering what few people wrote in their diary, it was a good thing they hid it from their parents.


Fast forward to now and I hardly hear even one single person talking about writing diaries. Instead, all I get to see now is dozens and dozens of blogs on the internet. Nothing particularly good or bad about it except the fact that how things change so drastically. Maybe its the get rich quick scheme that blogs promise or a wider audience which mostly comprises those with similar interest, that fueled the transition. But the best part is that people no longer hesitate to write what they feel strongly about or to expose their deepest thoughts and secrets to the huge audience here and that is simply so brilliant and relieving compared to writing a lonely diary.
