If based on words alone, I have probably posted more on this blog over one weekend then I have on Facebook in my entire time there (nearly 2.5 years). However, they say a picture is worth a thousand words and, based on both my photos as well as those I am "tagged" in, these photos can show a significant story.
It's somewhat odd though. I feel that on here I have almost complete liberty to post anything I want, as much as I want because, in reality, very few people will actually read it. However, at the same time, this makes my posts extremely mundane, especially given the fact that I have about two hours to do five (four more after this) and that this counts for a grade. Essentially, I have been given the license, and, one could say, requirement, to ramble on and on, which unfortunately I do very well.
Maybe it is because Facebook is a shared scrapbook, whereas a blog is a journal of stories and opinions. However, I also know many bloggers who use this medium in an interesting way, who make it funny and a pleasure to read, whereas here I am, talking about my random thoughts, just typing words yet not really saying anything.
