    To release pent up aggression and irritation as well as to simply stay sane.
    1. imawraj
      u wanna stay sane - come to thepositivelife.com and u will feel happier......trust me
    2. MissSuzie
      If I want to stay sane, I'll give you my husband. Do we have a deal?
    3. cabucgayanbiliran
      place visit my site guys. www.maplesjanet.com
  2. SAHMinIL
    Because I want too. It also is a good way for me to share our homeschooling ideas, troubles, and success with other homeschoolers.
  3. greencurmudgeon
    I'm a compulsive writer and having a blog is a good outlet.
    1. Norski
      I'm about in the same position. Blogging is a good outlet for the urge to write - and comments are a pretty good form of feedback. Some comments - that's a whole different topic.
  4. Epicharis
    because for some reason people don't like listening to my lectures on the state of the world at dinner...
    1. MissSuzie
      People just don't like listening to me period.
    2. JamCan
      LOL I hear you. No one in my REAL life wants to hear anymore about Jamaica either!
    3. agnespages
      @SiuilARuin: LOL!!
    4. cabucgayanbiliran
      just fell bored today.
  5. cookingasshole
    I realized I had enough recipes to write multiple cookbooks...but not in the traditional sense
    1. JamCan
      And you want to express your assholery! I love your blog.
  6. JamCan
    Because I'm 100% passionate about my content and the purpose it serves.

    Fills up time. Faraway family can see what I'm up to. It's fun! Plus now, I'm trying to get KISS to come to my little city. Wouldn't it be cool if they had to play in a cow pasture and Gene stepped in a cow patty(that's cow poop)?! LOL! So it's a place to help me get votes. Blogging is far out fun!
    1. Norski
      Thanks for sharing that - One of my daughters and I keep in touch partly through blogs and online communities.
  8. missvirtualreality
    I blog because its a way for me to be creative!
  9. charona
    Got new friends, knowledge, experience.
  10. nothingprofound
    To embalm my dead thoughts.
  11. sirus162002
    to express myself without limitations of people judging me.
  12. shadowmoon87
    To practice english....and to share some info about my hobby and a few of my works too.
    1. Norski
      Blogs are an excellent way to practice a language. My cradle tongue is English - and I find that writing blogs helps me keep my skills fresh. I think that anything learned - language, watch repair, whatever - improves with practice, no matter how skilled a person is. And, deteriorates with lack of practice.
  13. JoelKlebanoff
    I'm an idiot who is extremely shallow and doesn't actually have a life. What else am I going to do with my time?
    1. rainyz
      Awwww, I bet your not shallow. People who are shallow wouldn't admit to being shallow, also an idiot wouldn't admit being an idiot either. I could go on...LOL!
  14. itSAMEERacle
    my friends made me do it
  15. aftercancer
    I blog because I had cancer in my 30's and know what it's like to be out there, thinking you're the only one. aftercancernowwhat.com
    1. rainyz
      I had to add a www to that and without it I couldn't see your page.

  16. drjay1966
    Because the world desperately needs Yoga for Cynics....
  17. FreelanceMoneyMker
    The real question is, why not? Everyone has something to say thus everyone should have a blog! Then again, maybe not. They might have something to say but it doesn't mean anyone would want to hear it! The reason I personally made a blog is to help those out looking for some free to do unique job opprotunities online to help rake them in at least a part-time income for not too much time invested.
  18. bunda
    to share the story,knowledge,experience,and try to tell what i feel and what i read, and i think the world need someone to share to.
  19. jtsantos
    to pour out various emotions such as joy, rage, opinions, and so on. i'm not the talkative type so blogging helps me express myself
  20. farangrakthai
    Beats watching TV

    1. imawraj
      this guy is really honest
  23. BetsyIckes
    Its new way to be my creative self. I can't just keep things bottled up too long!
  24. iyaayasmoderator
    Before, when I was working, it was for entertainment, usually my own. After I had my surgery and was put off work, it became something different, not just a time killer, but something to look forward too. I wish my life was half as interesting as most of the blogs I read.
  25. karenlloyd
    To pass on good money skills check my blog out www.moneywebsearch.co.uk
  26. FancyObsessions
    to remember daily happenings in my life. and extra cash.
  27. Norski
    I'm a writer - and not entirely satisfied with the way America's traditional publishing system works. So, blogging is an excellent way of getting published.

    I'd much rather have what I have to say out in the marketplace of ideas, than be trying to work with overworked editors: none of whom are neighbors, old school acquaintances, or members of the same organizations.

    The blogosphere is, I think, more of a meritocracy: where what you write means as much (maybe more) than who you know.

    Which brings up the idea of 'networking' - but this comment is too long already.

    Bottom line - I love to write; I'm pretty good at it; and blogs are a place where I can concentrate on writing, rather than marketing.
  28. lotusb
    It began as a way for far away friends and fam to know what was going on in my nomadic life in NYC...but it grew into more than that.
  29. pvalure
    I love snowboarding and I need new people to share it with. Some of my friends who don't ride, don't want to hear me anymore.
  30. Flameater
    I write because I want to keep a record of what's happening in my life. Over the long term, I hope my blog will reveal to me the overall direction I've been pursuing. Already, blogging had helped me discover more of what's most important to me, something I've never realized before keeping my blog.
  31. blackwater
    I blog to help webmasters, both novice and professional, get information and help them get backlinks to improve their rankings.
  32. coolbuster
    for fun, fame and fortune.

    wait...

    forget the last two.
    1. agnespages
      LOL cool!
  33. Jewells
    I write for therapy, plus I love to write even though I have bad grammar. I'm unique. I write to get rid of things that bother me. I write about my business. I write about my beliefs
    1. agnespages
      Awesome.
  34. farangrakthai
    Because I would like people to know Thailand and Thai people better. Not through "commercial" websites but through people who actually live there and like the country and the people. And well, I do not need the money, so it is advertisement free, which makes the site more readable, I think...
  35. CrystalRaven
    I blog as a creative outlet, to air the skeletons in my closet, to share my experiences so that perhaps someone somewhere out there won't feel so alone.
  36. nothingprofound
    To brush against another soul.
  37. arielkrodot
    to share what I feel, and knowing you all
  38. 86john
    i blog because i want to let you read my blog
  39. ArizonaAtheist
    Interesting discussion....

    I blog in order to expose people to what I consider to be the truth and to educate them about the subjects I write about. Speaking of truth, there are many people out there who either tend to intentionally or unintentionally deceive people so I feel it's my duty to point out their errors.
  40. davedol
    I blog hopping to discover some great secret about existence. I don’t know any such secrets myself, but by blogging maybe I’ll discover such a secret somewhere “out there”. There are over one hundred million blogs…somebody somewhere must know something grand!
    1. rainyz
      I know something super grand, but I'm not tellin'!
  41. lnclark1950
    I blog to share my life experiences with other people with the goal that they will find hope and be encouraged in whatever they are going through. I also blog to share my perspective on life. If what I write helps one person discover they can change their life or causes them to move forward towrds their dream then I have achieved my goal.

    I blog for a couple reasons. One to practice my writing. Two to have the possibility of finding some person out there to be my slave, and do whatever I want. Anyone interested?
  49. chosenclick

    To inspire people to live the life they want(if only for a day). And because I'm pretty much awesome.
  53. Keniacris
    I blog because it keeps my mind busy and I do need it sometimes. For a long time I wanted to write a book but I discovered I had thoughts coming more like several random pictures than a movie. I needed to let feelings and words out of me.
    1. dbowles1017
      pretty good stuff! I'll have to keep you in mind should I decide to ever decorate.
    2. scarletbreeze

  57. tjefferson85
    To express, to release, because i have stories inside of me waiting to burst forward. A buildup of words and ideas in my head could make it explode, lol!
  58. rodrigovilla511

    I like being able to express myself & have others around the world read my thoughts & poems!
  60. celticmusicfan
    I blog because I am passionate about the music i like
  61. Albran
    I blog because I found something that 99,99% of the world does not know about, and yet it is the most advanced and successful concept regarding our basic questions of why we are here, where we come from and what we are doing here. It is called A Course In Miracles. Applying its lessons is truly salvation and leads to peace of mind that can't be disturbed.
  62. pens4life
    So that my online friends (the ones that moved away or met during my life) can keep in touch with me and it's a good way to express my feelings without keeping angry.
  63. GenuineWoman
    I do blogging to inspire women to live only in love, beauty and happiness!
  64. Mkcoy
    It was meant to be.
  65. boytrotters

      You're fortunate if you've managed to do that!
  69. camae
    To have an outlet - through writing..
  70. IndigoWrath
    I'm getting my creative mojo going again. I want to blog every day for a few months, enjoy writing, feel good about what I produce, and get some positive feedback. That way, I'll be more confident about writing a book when the job axe falls.

    I'm 20 days in and firing on all cylinders!
  71. Chucklington
    I got bored of it, and Blogger can be a pain in the ass to use, but I've recently gotten back into it, and am enjoying it very much. It's great to collate all the news you've read about, and to get your opinions on things out there...even if, as in my case, it's generally just about films and stuff!
  72. LolitaV
    honestly, to give myself a hard on
  73. Keniacris
    I blog to share thoughts, dreams, hopes and to make friends.
  74. tlingitdreamer
    To get things outa my head in hopes I meet crazy people who think or have similar beliefs.When your able to become anonymous you say whats on your mind.
