The Final Blogging on Blogs

So I used to have this idea that blogs were just for the gothy emo kid.(At some point, you know that was true) However, I eventually came to realize that was untrue, mostly, and realized the true potential of the blog and now embrace the concept.

But then I went and found this: http://vampirefreaks.com/main.php

Now, technically, it's more of a blog server than an actual blog. It's myspace for the gothy emo kid crowd. But what's myspace but a more interactive blog? Yeah, I surfed around it for a little bit, not quite sure who's journal to cover in this so I eventually decided to just cover the site itself. Mainly because I'm not sure if these kids are serious or just doing it as a joke, but either way, it's kind of a funny thing to run into while researching blogs. At least to someone who's always thought of blogs as this to begin with.

I'm just going to get this over with.

Type: Blog. It's kids posting their private journals online.

Genre: Personal/Fantasy. There's a bunch of different "alternative" lifestyles out there. The Goth. The Emo. The Punk. The Vampyre. This site is for them.

Purpose: To post and interact with others who enjoy that kind of lifestyle. Not my cup of tea, but it's someone's. Though, the younger the poster, the more I tend to think it's purpose is for attention and not just to interact with a familiar community.

There's an irony in this having to be done by dawn.
