If you want to learn about nature or art or shopping, or just about any topic out there, there are most likely some free blog sites on the internet where you can join in and learn.
When I was first exploring the internet I found some free blog sites that were devoted to makeup lovers. It was humorous I thought, how all of the women on the blogs spent so much time on there writing about what makeup they wanted to buy. They also all gave a run down of what makeup they put on their face that day and most of them told what they were wearing as well. Most of them were probably at work while they were spending time blogging.
It made me laugh but I also found it sad in a way. It didn’t seem like a real connection. When I explored these sites further I found a whole bunch of reviews sorted by brand and types of makeup such as lipstick. These were very helpful because you could read about other people who had your coloring and find good colors for you, and good deals. I still thought a huge website devoted to makeup was a little funny but the point is, whatever your interest there is going to be a site devoted to it.
Free blog sites can be spots where people end up forming friendships. I made a friend via one of the online community sites and he found me through a blog on there about international travel. When he read my profile and saw my pictures he became more interested in me so we started chatting over the internet. We eventually met each other. We both attended the Burning Man Festival in Gerlach, Nevada and set up the meeting when we found out we would both be there.
When we met there we were both interested in knowing each other better and eventually we ended up traveling together in Thailand. This was because he was already in Japan when I went to Thailand and he wanted to do some extra travel while abroad. The point here is that the free blog we both posted on had people on it that all had the same interest. If you have one big interest in common such as world travel or creative writing, then it follows that you may very well have enough in common to become friends. I still know the man I traveled with and I have met other friends’ blogging as well. I find blogs both fun and useful. They are a great way to learn more about something, and to meet others who share your interests.
