Why blog (or not)?
"Or not" means that it is my choice whether I blog meaning write/publish a post or not. If I did not have a blog (or at least the assurance in my head that I have a blog which I can peruse anytime a brilliant world-changing idea occurs to me), I would not really be writing or even storing up ideas. Another scenario, if I was writing for magazines/papers, I would have to be accountable to so many things. Mainstream or even alternative media mostly want nicely packaged stuff. You cannot go on an emotional monologue, or ignore every rule of grammar. When you say certain things, if the only conviction of that thing that you are saying is your heart, it is simply not acceptable.
