What Do You Think Blogging Is? (Self-Discipline Part 2)

What do you think blogging is?

Communication.. or a record of myself, storage of materials I've collected, sharing of information.

Sharing methods or source code as-is.
Reposting good articles as-is.

Even if done with good intentions, it can be a one-sided explanation.
Half-baked knowledge can (unintentionally) be conveyed with a different intent.
Also, rather than responding to the influence or effect of that information,
one can develop a tendency to focus only on visible results.
If words are powerful, then perhaps blogging can be even more dangerous.
Saying "it's up to the person receiving it" —
that could be an irresponsibly careless attitude.


For example, consider volunteering.
You may feel good about it, but if the recipient doesn't actually need it,
it becomes self-satisfaction rather than genuine help.

The same applies to blogging.
Before sharing, think about whether it truly helps others or just feeds your ego.
