My handwriting is poor and so I stopped writing. I never wrote diary of personal events. The vents like academic qualification, appointment, promotion, retirement etc are on record and documented. Sol, no need fore a diary. I used to maintain a diary of phone nos and address. Now no diary. Only phone- fixed and mobile, email and Facebook, twitter and most important, Boddunan.
I feel that people write on internet even such things that they would never write in a paper diary.
Well, poor handwriting will give you an advantage as no one will know what you have written :laugh: :laugh:
But jokes apart, yes there are people who write on blogs what they wouldn't have generally written in a diary. But what do you think the reasons might be?
They fear that diary may be seen by some one in family whereas blog is at safer distance. I remember that when I was studying in class X, I wrote a novel in Hindi. This was still incomplete. My cousin (maternal uncle's daughter) happened to find out the manuscript. she read a few pages and found some portion amusing as this was description of female beauty and breasts, thighs etc. Those days, there was no internet. If I had written same thing in a blog or any site, she would not see.
