    As odd as this may sound, my life inspired me to blog. Blogging has become a way for me to express myself.

    Hmm. What happens to our country inspires me to blog.

    I started this blog during a Masters by research at University of NSW. My blog has been threw together (at times) unconnected material relating to areas of my research. I am interested in themes relating to politicised social paranoia. As a society we gain security but lose our freedom. Consensual paranoia imprisons us in our own delusional fears thereby incapacitating and debilitating us.

    Food and family inspired me to blog! My family lives too far from me so it's a way to share with them and with the world about my passion... yes, I am a foodie, I write about food and my "adventures with it" I go to restaurants and take pics of their food... things like that!

    Like Zoemcduncan, my life inspired my blogging. I have 4 blogs that encompass all the things that I experience. I lost my infant son in June and needed to go back to blogging (which I had taken a break from) to fill in my time, but now it's about trying to do other things with my passion to write, and my knowledge of the world (from my view). I also blog to stay in touch with family and friends abroad and to chronicle day to day things that pop up.

    The existence of citizen journalism websites inspired me to blog...then it is the bloggers' conversations that make it alive, keeping my blogging spirit alive...

    John Chow all the way...

    I've always been messing around with web development, freelancing, etc etc.. but then I started to read what he did and it really opened up a new world to me.

    I've been blogging for decades. It's just that back in the day, it wasn't referred to as such. It was called keeping a journal.

    I've been online since dating back to the BBS days, and, have kept a blog under one name or another since the year 1999. Writing for me has been a way to organize my thoughts. Uploading those thoughts to the Internet provides a vehicle not only for others to read my material, but also to keep my writing skills honed.

    My friend began blogging, and I fell into it almost by accident whilst I was setting up a google account to try and follow her, I was soon hooked. I just love writing about random things that interest me, everything weird and wonderful.

    I think there's a blogger inside everyone:)

    I blog when I'm inspired. I can be sad and still be inspired to blog, it doesn't really matter.

    Blogging, keeping a journal, whatever. I think it's pretty much all the same.

    (This was so out of the pink) :-)

    Breast Cancer, I have the need to get my experience out there for other BC'ers so that they know they are not alone, I also have a warped sense of humour, that gives me a different perspective to dealing with lifes oddities.

    I have had a cynicism and pessimistic view of the world in the past. Writing for Seeing Change allows me to focus on the positive, and learn many new things. Best way to change the world is to change yourself.

    My dad got me into blogging. I've secretly wanted to blog for a little while - I mean reading blogs by some authors and artists I like and seeing other people blog it seemed like fun. I think blogging is a good way of expressing myself and I would like to help others with what I write too, I hope lol

    Well, my sisters friend is a blogger for the Onion. I have always been really interested in writing but I had no way to get published. So I finally set up my blog and I've been doing it every day since.

    My life inspired me to blog. I found out 7 months ago my son was being abused. I have been so strong but due to his need for privacy I could not talk to any of my usual friends. In one weeks time I was bottled up so tight I thought I was having a heart attack, my English teacher required her class to join her blog and I watched Julie and Julia. It was a sign from the gods!!!! I blogged and let the flood gates go. Thank God for blogging or I may have ended with a real heart attack very fast!

    My travels inspired me to blog about Malaysia and Southeast Asia. I've only started since June of 2009 and it has been a good 8 months now with a PR4 Rank. I have visited places I can only dream of and it has not stopped. Now if only I can turn this into a full time job...

    Regards,

    Adoption awareness inspired me to blog. I am a birth mother who has a rather fortunate story to tell and I think if more birth mothers out there knew that there are many of us out here, then it may help them cope with the loss, grief, guilt and sometimes joys that life has to bring.

    I guess it's one of the side-effects of being on the internet for too long. I started out on LiveJournal just short of it's release, wrote there for a few of years, then stopped. I didn't write for a few years after that, but naturally fell back into it when I decided to join the blogosphere, since the idea of interacting with other people who felt strongly enough to share what they want to enough to write about is appealing. The potential number of ideas exchanged is exciting to me.

    You see most of the people write blogs for sharing something with others. May be some experiences, passions, hobbies. Blogging is a wonderful platform to communicate with millions of people and sharing your knowledge.

    Blogging for me is like a therapy. It relaxes me and its such a fun fun way to share my ideas, opinions, and insights to everyone. (I have so much things to say. lol!) I got inspired by other bloggers and my friends.

    I started blogging because of the lack of an unbiased platform to express myself on national issues. I furthered my personal blog and converted it I got inspired by the reach of new media, the ease of starting up and the volume of change it could create.

    My son inspired me. He died 11 hours after birth in 2009. I needed a venue to vent my thoughts & learn how to breathe again. Cheaper than therapy too.

    I am just now getting started but my friends and family have always told me that i've always had the most ridiculous restaurant service experiences that i really need to start a blog. I'm still doing the research for this start.
