Why I Blog

People asked me why I wrote these blogs.

Firstly, as mentioned in my first blog (My New Blog on 10/10/09), I was trying to learn to use the contemporary internet tools like Facebook, Blogging etc with my son in order to catch up with the latest technology, despite I was once a 36-year IT professional. As time went along, I just got into the practice of writing, and came to enjoy writing in its own right.
Secondly, as people knows me, I'm a man of few words. I don't like to talk much as I'm not good in talking. I have difficulty communicating with machines (witness my blog - Voice Recognition System on 11/10/09) as well as communicating with humans (witness my blog - Different Wave-lengths on 2/12/09). But I can do much better in writing than in talking (witness all my blogs!). Given in my retirement now, I believe I could have the time to communicate more with everyone, and communicate more effectively using these spaces.
Lastly, but not the least, I think life is beautiful (if we look at the bright side). There are always interesting and funny stories either we heard or read, or we came across in our everyday lives. We'd feel happier ourselves by sharing these happiness with people around us. If we take time to look more closely, we may even be able to pick up some good advices or lessons useful for everyone. I call these my StoryBlogs. I hope they would provide opportunities for having some fun, and occasionally (hopefully) some good advices to my readers.

Happy blogging!
