Stardoll blogs: Cheap Ticket To Virtual Fame?


Stardoll blogs. 
It seems that everyone has one. It's actually pretty depressing, if you ask me. When I started, blogging was big. And by big, I mean, hugely popular, but also at a reasonable rate. There were many great blogs back then, blogs that deserved their popularity and were thought provoking. Nowadays, blogging is still big. But, blogs themselves? Not so much. The reason is, people who blog nowadays, don't seem to be genuinely keen on their "job".

Back in 2008 and maybe a year after that, Stardoll blogs were witty, funny, showcased their owners' talents, and, you know, usually had a purpose. Some derided "Elites", others deified them and so on so forth. Now, though, blogs are just facts. "Hooray, new HotBuys!" "Spoilers!" "Blah! Blah! Blah!" There are some blogs out there that do just that and are quite successful. Good for them. And there are some that can't even do that. They are usually consisted of poor articles, spelling and grammar-wise, and that's just sad, considering there was a time when bloggers were passionate about what they were doing. In 2011, however, blogs' sole purpose seems to be achieving fame, catapulting to the elite. Easily, painlessly, in no time at all.

When I created this blog, all I wanted to do was write. Write about Stardoll, that is. Stating simple facts was never an option. Stating my views and plaintiveness on the events that affect our virtual society
was my purpose.
But, most importantly, be genuine about it. 

And, no, this is not another self-important rant about how I am better
than everyone else. It is simply and merely a rant.
