Well, today is my first tryst with blogging & hopefully not the last. There are various forms of human communication as we all know & bloging is seemingly one of the latest. What makes me write a blog is an important question i asked myself before I decided to go for it. The answer is simple. I want other's to know about my personal beliefs & opinions as much as I would love to know their's. But why did I choose blog for this purpose? I could have easily chosen more conventional ways for expressing my feelings over blogs. This answer is simpler. It's because 'medium is the message'. No. This is not my saying. (if it were, I would have probably jumped off the terrace in ecstacy). This is of Marshall McLuhan's. According to him, the choice of our medium is much more important & telling than the content it carries. In that capacity, my opinions in this blog is way insignificant to the very fact as to why I chose blog to convey these opinions in the first place. If my message is loud & clear even before I started typing the first word in this blog, why continue at all? Therefore, let this be my first & last blog. I hope this is enough from me to confuse you.Goodbye.
