Posted in: Communications |

Blogging became a phenomenon several years ago. The popularity of the blog exploded because suddenly, people found a way to voice out their opinions, speak their minds, and generally just tell their story to the world very easily.

Today, there are millions of blogs online, some are entertaining, some are funny, and some are informative, while others are just downright nasty. Texting became popular because it was cheap, quick, and very easy. Messages could be sent back and forth in a split second, connecting people from all over the world. It literally gave people the power to communicate using a tool that was within grasp of their fingertips.

Now, a new form of blogging is exploding into the scene. Micro blogging is basically blogging, but with a limited number of characters, hence the term micro.With microblog sites such as Twitter and Plurk, people could tell say what they are doing in quick, brief messages to their friends and contacts.

What’s making micro blogging popular now is the fact most micro blogging sites allow people to post using their phones. This means that people could tell their friends what they’re doing or how they’re feeling, whenever and wherever there is cellular service.

Micro blogging: it’s quick, it’s easy, and it’s the next big thing.
