Squeeze one out for America...
There's no reason for that title. It's just the first words that blared out of the TV when I turned it on just now. Futurama, if you want to know. Darren's now turned that off and is playing House of the Dead. Enough of my banality and on to to other types.

I used to post random bits and bobs to let people I didn't see all that often know what was going on in my life, tell stories, play with ideas, experiment with my writing. It was like an all in one scrap book for my life.
But as I've grown, a lot of those things have been replaced by better or more practical solutions. Face book is a better way to keep up with my friends, My writing "found a voice" of sorts and I started focusing on channelling that into more substantive forms, plays, short stories and articles rather than a daily blog update.
I expect I'll continue to blog, but the next time I put real effort into it will probably be a properly structured, subject orientated blog rather than the random ramblings of a deranged Lupe.
I suspect that it is generational in the sense that we are a bunch of people from a specific time in blogging. Many of us have moved onto other things. Other ways to write if that's what we decided to do.
Behind us is another generation blogging away as rabidly as we ever did , and they too will move on and be replaced by the generation before them.
I'm not saying that blogging is a young persons game, Just that loads of people have a dear Diary when they're 18, very few of them are still writing in it when they're 33. You move on, find new ways to express yourself, new ways to untangle the universe.
