Being very new to BLOGING, I have a few questions. What makes BLOGING different from Chat Rooms? Having limited experience with Chat Rooms and after reading your excellent article I can see some differences, however I would like to know your input on the subject. Also since I have never tried a Weblog site (at least not that I know of), how do I find BLOG sites that I might be interested in? Is there some sort of BLOG directory? I am not new to the Internet but BOLG is a term I have seen very little of until recently. I very seldom go into or even “Skulk” chat rooms because I find it hard to keep up with all the shortcuts, acronyms emcons, and shorthand used, I don’t see any of this in the posting to this site. Do BLOGs use these types of communication?

  I don't mean to be rude but what does that have to do with anything? Seriously, maybe I am missing something here? Being a woman with a wonderful loving boyfriend I can testify that not all guys lie! Maybe you should try some new places to meet men. Or give up completely and hit up some chicks, it worked for me! Anyways, good luck Takira :)

  Actually, to the females on here that are a little naive and think that there are good men out there that dont lie, I want to say that is not true. My husband is a very great guy, however he has lied to me in the past and I have caught him in those lies, although he has never admitted that he's lied to me and I know he never will, due to the pride and ego thing. But because of me confronting him about this stuff he has stopped and I havn't sensed anything or caught him since. Also I have known lots of other really good hearted guys that friends and family have been with or are with and those men have lied to them. So to those women who think "Well my man has NEVER lied to me" Is being very naive and will one day get a reality check and you will wish you would have been more aware of it before.

  I agree with that. I am in a relationship with a lovely guy, but, there are certain things I have found out that were very distasteful. I moved half way over the world to live with my man so if he ever does anything nasty to me I will be on the first flight home. He does have single friends who would be delighted if we broke up tomorrow. The reason I am on this site is due to me finding out my partner is excepting pictures of his friends latest catch, on his mobile and they are in his saved messages, nude...made me feel really sick to the stomach, as my partner was willing to accept these pics and he said nice show to his friend, really makes me think. My partner does not know I saw them, as I used his phone to text and they popped up. Im an insecure person when it comes to my body so it just makes me feel even more insecure...i dont know what to do??

  Guys are so stupid and they lie because they think since they were put on this earth first, they can rule us girls. It f***ing sucks if you ask me. I hate how us girls get treated differently just because some of us like to be pretty and make sure our hair is done right! (SO WHAT, right?) Also guys can be intimidated by girls and so they think it might ruin their ego if a girl does something better than them. Its BS!!!!

  they lie because they don't think about anyone but thierselves. they don't care about girls feelings. they don't understand anything!!! my boyfriend is a huge asshole and he never listens to me. the main reason is they don't care about anything else other than what they want to do!

  what the hell is wrong with you girls. if your boyfriend is an asshole and you dont like being lied to then leave. its your fault for letting them treat you that way. i think you have some serious self esteem issues. and not all guys are liars there are some decent guys out there

  Men only need a place to put their brain. As long as their brain is getting wet they are happy. Woman always want and need more than any man could ever give us. It's so simple to make a woman happy that a man just can't seem to fill the order. Woman are strong and men are weak. Men cry and complain when they are in pain. Woman can have pain and work and clean the house and take care of the kids and the list of work with pain goes on and on with out a complaint hardly. When men get sick....god for bid...they can't get out of bed and work...but when women are sick with a cold....we go to work and still cook dinner. I personally, never want to be equall to a man. It's the man that needs to be equall to a woman.

  And yet it still seemsthe vast majority of women on this web board are whinning. Tell me, instead of continuing this immature battle trying to determine which sex is more dominant, take a breath, and realize you can't characterize an entire gender just because of some sterotypical follies.
  ladies, remember when you made a commitment to your mates, and ask yourself if it has all been worth it. if not, i'm afraid i'l be hard but you wold probaly be better off not dating that guy that lies all the time.
  and "monatakenoshit", quit thinking girls are the best. They need males. and males need females.
  I COULD say that all girls do is shop, buy shoes, and put on makeup, but that's not true at all. hoep you get the point.

  Well not all men are assholes just allot of the ones most women meet... and you can meet them anywhere so... so much for looking for new places to meet them. As far as women whining about men on here? well its probably because of the subject posted we dont all have perfect partners and going through the task of finding yet another who could be self centered and cold after getting to know this person can be very disappointing. No one wants disappointment and not everyone has a sufficient amount of self esteem to back up a loss so even if its not meant to sound generalized it usually is... women are more emotional and emotion plays a huge part of our thinking process and usually men aren't so its more of a logical thinking kind of thing for a man I think the whole subject matter was a way of venting because no doubt some guy has hurt someone emotionally by being callous and insensitive which because men do not perceive things the same way because of the way they think which comes across as very cold and callous allot of the time. Its hard to really understand why men and women even get along at all sometimes because it seems very frustrating to try to convey your feelings to someone who just cuts you off and wont listen or finds a way to twist it around and blame it on that time of the month or in return that response allot of women give which is " your just a guy and you wont understand." Ive tried for years to understand the "guy" in my life and its been a very long and frustrating process I have come to realise I probably never will. But at the same time if you love someone its hard to just cut bait and run because most of the time thats the nice glib answer most people will give you. All I can say is good luck ladies if it is worth it to you to keep trying to get through to someone who is genetically impervious to emotional response then keep trying and if not? then walk away and dont look back.

  Usually chat room messages disappear after the chat is over, although in some cases the text can be archived on a serve.
  
  blogs are meant to be published and visible at all times, either in a private blog space or a public blog space. You can see the text of all members of a particular blog. The blogs are categorized according to dates, titles, names (whatever the administrator of that blog sets up.) Blogs can be edited, chat rooms discussions cannot.

  So, what is the diference between a blog and a homepage then? Is it just easier to deal with?
