Almost anybody who's anybody is blogging these days! But it really hit me when I came across a blog by a kid I knew a long time ago. We might be apart by slightly more than a decade but nothing in his blog would suggest that except for his mentions on being behind in his blogs thanks to "school".
At 15 this kid is opining on the business strategies of Microsoft and Google. At 15 all I could think of was how to bunk a lecture in college! Not to say that I was completely clueless. I was into books (read: fictional) and current affairs (read: latest movies) and pretty internet savvy considering the fact that I was totally hooked on to the then Black and White interface of the shell account and had introduced many of my friends to the "wonderful" world of Internet chatting back in my school days!
And now there's this 15 year old who makes me look back at my teen years and feel quite "uncool"! But then again I wonder how I made late 20-sumthings feel when I was 15! The World's always changing and when it changes it shows no bias to a particular age group.Its an open ride and anyone can hop on at any time. At 15 you might embrace the drifts with more enthusiasm and soul. But really there's nothing stopping you even at 50!!!
But I don't intend to wait that long. So, while furiously surfing through the internet to make up for "lost time" I came across, among other things, quite a few blogs! Frankly I seemed to quite like the idea of people airing their views on events round the world or sharing their lives or just ruminating on randomness! I loved the whole spectrum from the very political to the everyday mundane! Simply Brilliant - that's how the Blog Bug finally bit me! And so ..here I am adding my 2 cents to the ever-growing yet intriguing world of Bloggers!!
