All my blogs

Why do people maintain so many blogs? I have a few different blogs, but always consider this one my primary blog. I recently resurrected my Xanga blog for freewriting. I started it long ago because I found some writers there who I enjoyed reading, and I could subscribe to their sites. Updates are delivered to my email inbox.

When I first started blogging, there were few blog sites available. Blogger was about the only one (that I could find back in 2001 anyway). Now, there is a proliferation of sites where you can set up your very own free blog. You don't even have to know any HTML. I suppose people gravitate toward the most popular sites, like Livejournal, because a lot of their friends are there.

Some people mirror their blogs, using one site as a primary and then copying what they post to their other site. I have thought of doing that, but it seems redundant. I would rather invest the majority of my time here, at Avalon Landing, instead of splitting my efforts among several sites.

Perhaps I should just invest in my own domain and set up my blog and journal there. Then I wouldn't need so many sites. :)
