I was a CXA (Certified Xanga Addict) one year ago. I was obsessed with blogging. I didn’t care much of the anatomy lectures because I had to think of something good to post in my Xanga.
When I realized I was spending too much of my time in the internet, almost neglecting my studies which demands my full attention (as our doctors say), I stopped blogging. That was not an easy thing to do. Mind you, I’ve had withdrawal symptoms. Kidding.
So why am I back with blogging now? It all started with the idea of putting up a opm lyrics site. Then after much updating of my lyrics site, I realized I miss blogging. I miss meeting people, I miss making friends over the internet, I miss venting out my thoughts. I miss everything about blogging.
I decided my “comeback” blog to be at Blogger. Why?
* because I want a “new” environment.
* because Xanga’s banner on top was kinda annoying.
* I want to connect to everyone. With Xanga, only registered users can comment. If I were the guest, I will not bother to register, just to post a comment. The comment system may not be of big deal to you, but it is to me.
* because I can use my adsense account here. At least I am earning while blogging
* because I can create multiple blogs with my account.
To the Xanga users, please don’t get me wrong. I am not discouraging you to use Xanga. These are mere personal reasons. Xanga can have its advantages, too. The automatic subscription without modifying your template is its edge over Blogspot. Their Look and Feel editor is a big help for easier modification of your layouts. The group system also is one great feature. At least it loads faster than Blogger. I am sure, I missed out some important features as I have been out of the Xanga circle for over a year now. What was so nice also of being a Xangan is meeting good friends.
