Surfing The Wave Called Mindsay or My Turn At The Linguistic/Grammar-Rant Bat
There's been a lot of hubbub about writing a better blog. There's a ton of stuff out here that proves it needs to be said.

I can see the points of certain writers, that they are writing for themselves and their friends, but I am flabergasted that they or their friends would want to read:

2dy j n k sxd nfnt of me i wuz sooo pist n stuff there so not cool. they nevr wer.

or

I'm bored... my life sucks.


Some of those same people who say they are writing for themselves and their friends are complaining that no one ever writes replies.

If peoples' responses are what you want, then write in a way that makes it easier to understand. It's also been said before, and I'll say it again here, keep in mind that the colors you choose for your words and backgrounds, the fonts and their size play a big part in a readability.

I'll be frank, if I can't read the headline, or if your words are too dificult to understand, I'll beat it our of your little edge of the internet, faster than a man in the feminine hygiene section of Target.
