I’ve read quite a few blog posts about blogging, and there is undoubtedly some irony behind this. \u00a0Yet why does this happen? \u00a0Why do bloggers like to blog about blogging?<\/p>\n

And I'll blog about the bloggers blogging about blogging!<\/p><\/div>\n
Well, there’s one easy answer and several not-so-easy ones.<\/p>\n
Obviously, if you’ve nothing to blog about, blogging about blogging is a valid option. \u00a0Yep. \u00a0This is a filler post, by the way.<\/span><\/p>\n A lot of a blogger’s readership is comprised of other bloggers, and since this is the case, other bloggers that visit one’s site can connect to one’s blogging experiences. \u00a0Now, this isn’t to say that blogging about anime alienates the readership (on the contrary – more people can connect to something like an anime episode than to a post about blogging). \u00a0But, this is deeper than the anime connection… it’s an anime blogging connection.<\/p>\n Bloggers can relate when a blogger comments on episodics vs. editorials<\/a>\u00a0(I’m not quite sure what an editorial is, come to think of it),\u00a0visuals to accompany posts<\/a>, or whatever dilemna, problem, or even success an aniblogger might face.<\/p>\n Obviously, if you’re blogging about blogging, then it’s assumed that you know enough about blogging to make a decent post about it (unless, of course, the post turns out to be 20 words long). \u00a0What looks even smarter is commenting on how blogging about blogging makes you look smart. \u00a0(protip: that’s me, yo)<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Obviously, there’s only really one of those three that makes any sense: the second one. \u00a0The other two are just there to make my post longer.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n "It's not like it really matters"<\/p><\/div>\n So what is a post blogging about blogging?<\/p>\n\n
