Blogs, by their very nature, make the private-public. You share your innermost thoughts and feelings here, without presumptions, the way you would record these us an journal. Voyuerism, when people consume your thoughts as idle reading – and you want them to do it too. I wonder, how honest are people when tyhey actually write in these spaces. In India, the twos As, Aamir and Amitabh, now have their blogs. The two superstars may have revived the word for the public – but earlier Shekahr Kapur and Anurag Kashyap have long been favorite stopping posts of avid movie goers.
Shekhar does not blog much nowadays, most of Anurag’s posts are about the upcoming film Aamir. Aamir, the person, has an endearing quality to his blogs – I suspect he very much writes the way he talks, and once in a while, there’s an occasional typo, not too different from an email he would have personally written.
Amitabh, on the contrary, seems to proofread his writing quite a bit, and even posts an apology for the ocassionally mis spelt word. Hmm…is this a man or a copywriting team at work…a lot of people wonder. But its fun reading what is presented as the individual writing in first person, just to know what the rich and famous think of 
Closer home – J is blogging now. The comments section warns employees to post ‘relevant’ comments and further cautions that comments will be filtered. Hmm, Im sure they would do it anyway, but putting it up there seems to be a tad unnecessary, and demaeaning even.
