What is Blogging about?

This thread appeared on a message board that I won't name...

Someone: I may need to start promoting a website at some point in the future. Are there any good ways to do this, outside of entering the URLs at search engines?

Someone Else: The personal, vanity site could be promoted through blogger-friends.

Original Someone: Yeesh. I'm of the opinion that friends shouldn't let friends write blogs...

Me: Not sure how I should respond to that one....
Note that the URL of this blog always appears in my .sig

Original Someone: Well, let's just say I don't like reading other people's online diaries and wouldn't go out of my way to cultivate friends who did so.

Me: : Arrrghhh!

I think some people need some education as to what the Blogosphere's about!

Update: Perhaps he things all blogs are like this? (Thanks to Bible Geek for the link!)
