Why switch to Blogger.com (also known as Blogspot.com)
I have nothing against multiply or friendster or any other networks
I actually find their animated-petal-thing (when you hover over someone's picture) amusing...i get hypnotized by them when they go on forever when my internet connection is slow heheh.
But yah to make it convincing to you on why you should switch (or at least considering making an account) to blogspot, i'll put it in the pro/con format:
WHY SWITCH:
PROS:
- its the fad, i mean believe me there are millions of filipinos taking blogspot as the alternative
- its got class...um not too be mayabang or mean but i've heard a few friends call friendster cheap or oldschool. blogging is a global phenomenon so it's not exclusive to the english language, and i've seen very impressive Pinoy blogs, spanish blogs, pig-latin blogs(joke).
- its got a vast range of interesting and informative blog network...actually i use blogs as a second alternative to online encyclopedias...personal posts from bloggers can contain a lot of meat..
- you can blog about your photos, music, videos and just about anything you want to blog about
- you can expand your network (also see cons)
you can monitor how many viewers you've had, where they came from, what they read the most, etc..
you can have subscribers to your blogs via email or live-feeds (i really find this a plus, it makes my eyes cry teeny-weeny tears of joy every time i see more subscribers to my blog)last but not least
you can earn from posting your blogs in blogspot (there's more steps to it in my site if you want to go into details: tsaikoboy.blogspot.com)
CONS:
- its exclusive to bloggers (Blogger/blogspot..um *obvious ba)about that expanding your network---blogspot has no "add-as-friend" button (you have to manually put links in your blog to connect other bloggers in your network...follows the typical website idea) (ps, i'm trying to filter out the non-bloggers here so if you're into the friendnetwork type, you may well stick to multiply or friendster)
- it's becoming more and more commercialized (i'm not sure if this is altogether bad but it looks greedy for some)
- it takes time to get used to the format and blog layout (um it took a full time Nurse intern like me who only gets online on rare occasions a WEEK para masanay)
um..so far that's all the cons i can think of..(earning four-digit amounts every month kinda makes a person focus on the PROS hehehe)
To end on a positive note, I personally have decided not to terminate my account (terminator?eh muvie yan eh amp***) in multiply due to kia's cute baby pictures, joke heheeh.I can manage to juggle 2 friendster accounts, 2 blogspots, 1 myspace, 1 facebook, 1 multiply, 1 technorati, 1 mybloglog, 1 blogrush, 10 intern groupmates, 4 days of hospital duties, 2 days of schoool, and 1 day of worship and board-exam review *PHEW* (hehe pinagyabang na.,..i know there are more of you busier than me*belat*)
(PSS author reserves the right to not mention his beloved parents and family and online games on this blog hehehe)(PSSSS. THERE IS NO REFERRAL SYSTEM IN BLOGSPOT SO THIS WAS NOT POSTED SO I CAN EARN CREDITS OR MONEY OR VIRTUAL WEALTH . LOL.BOW**)
