I’m a huge fan of blogging. I’ve been actively pro-blogs since the year 2000. When I hear about blogs in the news one eyebrow automatically goes up. The same thing happened when I heard about Mr. Trump’s blog. It’s not just his blog, though it’s named “The Trump Blog”. Don has an entourage of writers who help in his two-line-entry blogs. As I’m reading this blog I think to myself, “oh dear, Trump will be podcasting soon, and maybe vlogging.” Michael Gartenberg said it best: “If Donald Trump is blogging, then blogging is about as mainstream as it gets”, also my initial reaction.
Is this bad? Heck no. I look at this as a half step in the right direction. If we could only do something about fixing Trump’s hairdo, now that would be a step and a half in the right direction.
These are interesting times that we live in now. Everyone is trying to stay up to date with the current trends in mainstream pop culture so that they can continue to establish influence over millions of people who support or buy into there products and name. Trumps recent blog mania pursuit is a small sign of things to come that almost scare me. Pretty soon we’ll probably be seeing even mre unsettling events in our world today. With new technolgy trends in every market fathomable, hyper reality tv shows dominating the Telle, and 20 different CSI and Law & Order shows on T.V., I feel the urge to disconnect myself once in awhile. But hold that thought. I need to go watch Family Guy right now. It’s so sickening but so necessary… SCARY!
