One of the side effects of this is that I've learnt a bit more about how my bloggy-friends see blogging, and it's always fascinating to see how other people view things :) LOL cookies and beers :D<br /><br />@Liz: I've just taken a look at your blog! It looks really amazing, good luck with it. Undergrads can do anything ... maybe not always as well, but usually having a lot more fun! (btw...when you get five posts up head over to researchblogging.org and put in an application. That way your writing about papers will get pulled up into an aggregated system and a lot more people can find it)<br /><br />Long comments are fine. I like comments :DLab Rathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07962574174521597312noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8341686541622227200.post-72171133213829663432010-08-12T23:26:05.853+01:002010-08-12T23:26:05.853+01:00I like this post a lot :) I think your reasons for...I like this post a lot :) I think your reasons for blogging are similar to mine - I have always written, since I was nine or ten. University kinda drained me of inspiration, though, and it sucked. I'm really hoping that blogging, although it isn't fiction, will help me feel a little bit more creative.<br /><br />Also, I want to try to stave off the inevitable narrowing of learning. I'm pretty sure that there are a load of fascinating areas of research out there that I know nothing about yet, and it's far to early for me to ignore those possibilities.<br /><br />Also, I should say thank you, for making me realise that undergrads can do this stuff too, and indirectly convincing me to start a blog of my own. It's not always about being an expert, it's about being enthusiastic, and, well... I'm trying!<br /><br />Gah long comment.

Reading your posts and seeing you grow as a writer has been really inspiring.. Plus, you're a great community builder! You deserve lots of cookies and beers for all the comments you left behind!<br /><br />And thanks for the tag and link! After having been tagged twice, I guess I have to bite the blogging-about-blogging bullet too ;).Lucas Brouwershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15192035237302508309noreply@blogger.com
