How is a blog post defined? Are there definitions that I am unaware of? Is one sort of blog post more or less a post then another? If I write about my trip to Marshall’s today, would that be more of a post then say me taking time to take pictures, write captions and link up to WW, visit and comment on the other participating blogs? Or wait, comments would not be factored in. Or would they?
I am really rather confused as to what constitutes a blog post. Is it the time one puts into the actual act of composing the post? Is it the content? The quality of the content? A mixture of all the aforementioned and more? Is there a magic number of posts that make one blogger more a blogger then another?
These questions lead me to then wonder, is there a type of blogger that is harder working than another? If so, how is this measured? Are there categories or degrees of blogging? If so, again, how would this be measured? By time, quality, or content? All of those? None? Am I completely off base?
I always assumed when a person decided to have a blog, it was because that person wanted to blog about whatever appealed to that person. Now I am finding out that this may not be the case? That does not make sense to me. Is someone categorizing blogs and handing out gold stars to some and not others? If so, I will take a pass on the gold star and continue to blog as I have always chosen to blog. I like to blog without guilt, without pressure, and I choose to blog about the things in my life I care to share. So, if I lose a gold star, so be it, I cannot be what I am not.
