Useless Information

I’ve been reading a lot of blogs lately (some more than others).... turns out there is a huge Nigerian community of bloggers. I rate very low on social networking online so it came as a surprise. Its one of those things when you think you’ve broken some record only to find out you're the last one the bus :(

I have very little interest going into details of people's private lives even if it's someone I know or anonymous. Almost got bored reading until I came across a few folks who just blew me away. Magnificent writing styles, engaging stories, light humor and down right raw commentaries. Some nija bloggers write so well that if they keep level headed they could be the next literature icons.
There are some whose shrinks would need therapy if they had to deal with their issues. Call me naive but my answer if you think you got it bad is to look at the person next to you; this blogville proves me right. If you got a problem, find a solution; sounds simple enough eh! There’s all the bones life could throw you but without being philosophical or Dr. phillsh, a lot of folks just wallow through their blogs (hope it aint real-life) and never get out of the rat race to smell the roses.... I’m not putting anyone down here; these stories are engaging enough to make a good hollywo.... nollywood script. It's the content that grips me. Like I said before, I don’t care about dirt dishing/closet gossip but im a sucker for good writing.

On the upside, I think i've found an avenue for light reading on the web. Thanks to the folks who take the time to keep their readers engaged.
