I am not known to be a bitter person! Not at at all... But ever since blogs became a hit and everyone started to get his own blog, I began to look in retrospect at all the effort and time that it used to take to uphold and maintain a website. To make it a little interactive you had to use forms and a bit of PERL and you had to make a guestbook for visitors to sign...

Ever since the blog world popped into existance, I've had some of my own bitter resentments about how easy it is all is now for someone who knows nothing about computers to maintain a blog. I know my feelings are not in place, but does anyone share my bitterness? Or should I get over it and greet with arms wide open the age of information sharing and be glad that now the blog world has made it easier for people who have a lot of good information to share but lack computer skills to have maintained an old school website...?

Still... I feel bitter...

Blogs are a new tool, but as a concept have been around for a while. I would take comfort in the fact that people such as you paved the way for newer bloggers by carving out what a blog should be. Many bloggers today are successful not because they are computer programmers, but because they have good content. There is a big difference between a well designed blog, and a fun blog. If there's any solace, it's that people like you have made blogging accessible for the rest of us.

Maybe for those who take advantage of what you are saying, but for someone like me on Disability whose income is very limited it is a good thing. I cannot do very much, and the computer keeps me occupied and busy, so at least I can feel I have done something with my time. I cannot read very much with my vision with the way it is, and there is surely nothing on TV worth watching.

You're entitled to feel as bitter as any "craftsman" who sees mass produced goods enter the market, e.g. if you made fine fountain pens you might despair at the market penetration of the biro.

But you really should get over it. Don't become a "snob" because those using computers don't understand them as well as you do. You might not understand completely how your car works but you're still allowed to drive it.
