My First Blogpost

Well, being pushed by friends and colleagues to start a blog, this will be it. Blogpost.com.

Why? Why do people want to share their experiences, their ideas? Why do people post their photos, videos etc on the internet. Even video's of their wives giving birth. Why? I certainly do not want to see that!
Am I interested in other people's lives? What they did yesterday evening? What their opinion is? For the most part probably not. E.g. I really hate the so called vox populi. Especially during the 8 o'clock news. Stupid people picked randomly of the street, being interviewed on issues they don't understand. They really don't have a clue what they are talking about and the news channel is broadcasting that. Mostly paid for with my tax money.

So why then do I start blogging, pushing my opinions, ideas and experiences out on the internet, where probably no one is really interested in this stuff.
Well, what if only one person likes to read my blog? That gives me some recognition, some feeling of importance. And I like being patted on the back.

Does this count for everyone then? Yeah, in today's world it's all about being seen, being heard. Your not moving up in this world without that. Being just one of the guys, not standing out, you will not be seen by your bosses boss (if you have a competent boss that is). And we all know the consequences of that. Watch your average Dilbert cartoon if you don't...

So, please, let only one of you readers react and recognize my ideas, my very biased views on life. That's all I need...

One question though, what if everybody starts blogging? how will YOU stand out?
