Keeping the blogging habits in check

A few days ago, I created this simple silverlight application that graphed out my latest ten posts according to their type. (http://www.badgorilla.net/toolkittest/) I noticed I haven’t been blogging as much as I used to so I guess it would be good to see just to see how bad it is. If you look at the graph now, majority of the posts are coming from my tweets which are automatically aggregated and posted by my blog.

I guess it all boils down to the reason behind my blogging. If it’s to keep my friends and family updated about my day to day life, then I shouldn’t really be worrying about my tweets consisting most of my posts. They are after all, still mini accounts of the things I am doing. I guess beyond that though, I look at blogging more as an exercise of writing. I like writing. I wish I had better things to write about but still I enjoy it. I think it’s a nice way to express what’s on my mind, and somehow it sets my mind at ease.
