The 50th post: Deconstructing JEPEL
From time to time, it's necessary to take a step behind
and examine your achievement. This post is more for myself than for anyone else
to tread. But the rule of blog for me is that you don't hide anything. So first
I have written a summary of all my post, thus all the blogger I enjoy reading
and after I put my comments and resolutions.

There are a few bloggers I really don't like, but I
don't see any good reasons for naming them. I have to make a special mention to
Brad Wardell. I saw him making his coming out of the closet (aka draginol). At
first, I was feeling that JoeUser was his propaganda tool to spread his right
wing ideology. I was relatively outraged by that, as some other user have
already pointed out. However, I have change my mind about him, I still find most
of his political article stinky from an ideology view point, but remarkably well
written, well discussed and always worth reading. I doubt him reading this post,
but as a tribute, I think he is following the Voltaire's sentence "Je ne
suis pas d'accord avec vos propos, mais je me battrais pour que vous le dites."
(I don't agree with what you say but I will fight for you to say it.).
There are a couple of blog that are without new for
quiet along time and I think it's a shame (Dynoasoar or Patty O were nice to
read). I really appreciate Shery Hanson, Poetphilosopher, Solitair, Jeblck,
Wisefawn and Emacy.
Comments:
My objective when I started to blog was to improve my writing
skill in english and also expose my mind. I feel really happy about my personal
blog, I feel that there aren't enough. I think I have to spend more time writing
every post. I do a lot of spelling and grammar mistakes and I often forgot
words.
I should also try to dig deeper in me, I think that some
of my personal entries are really shallow.
The most popular blogs I have written are surprising me,
specially Eating
human flesh
I had design it as a draft, a few hyperlinks, almost no
comments and it is seen by a lot of people outside and inside JoeUser, looking
the referral, "eating man penis" is something that is really asked a
lot to Google... It seems also that having provocative title against Bush and America
in general is really paying regarding the number of people reading it.
The only flaw of JoeUser is that he's turning blogging
into a popularity contest, it's good to have feedback about you blog but it can
have bizarre side effects. Anyway, My objective was to be in the first 20, so it
will be little dishonest to say too much.
I hope I will go on enough to do the same article for
the 100 post. But I start to want to blog in French, I feel limited by my English
sometime. I might do a french blog.
