Why Blogging Will Never Be Out Of Fashion
Technology might evolve, but it can’t solve the mind
It’s no news that technology is evolving fast. We’re more connected than ever before and it feels like a new solution to a problem is found through technology advancement every single day. This is great and opens many doors to us but it also makes many “old ways” of doing become obsolete.
When I started my blog a year ago, I was told by many friends I was too late to catch the train and there was “no point” on doing so. Yes, it’s true that blogs were “the new rage” many years ago.
Turning a blog into an effective side (or full-time) business is not as easy as it used to be. And yet, day after day, more people start writing online, whether on their own blog or on a platform such as Medium. The attraction is thus not the money in itself.
It comes down to the need to share
Even though we are more connected to each other than ever, we meet face-to-face less than we used to and the vast majority of exchanges we have with others are daily messages without much insightful content.
We all have our own experiences and knowledge amassed through the years but we do not get the opportunity to delve into those regularly with our circle of friends.
