A Basque Proverb

A blog is the appropriate space for those who only want to hear themselves.

    Is it a recent proverb created after the genesis of blogs?

    :-). It is just an outburst of one angry Basque friend.

    You should explain that it was meant as conrast to what a forum is: a place of exchange of ideas.

    A blog is the place to expose your own ideas with minimal or even null interference. Better for certain personalities than a forum.

    That's what I meant.

    Good to hear you again, Maju!

    Regarding the proverb, well, no explanation is required. It can stand on its own :-).

    By the way, nice to see you have started a new blog.

    Maybe.

    Regarding my blog: I needed a place to express my opinions, even if nobody cares about them. In my case it may be a matter of karma: partnerships and I don't get along easily, it seems.

    You reminded me a Kannada song.
    ...I don't sing for want of an audience;
    Singing is my unavoidable karma...

    Is that your final analysis of blogging?

    Nothing is final (save death).

    Anyhow, different contexts require different "analysis". Though I never thought I was analyzing blogging as such.
