Blogs vs. forums

I agree with this.

Forum: Talking with people

Blog: Talking at people

Sure there are comments on a blog but people have different expectations from the community surrounding the site.

 

I like blogs for the sole fact, you can talk about whatever you'd like especially if you make it about your life, your internet life and things like that. Usually on my site when I use the blogs feature, I tend to vent, or express how I feel about certain issues.

 

Blogs aren't for me, I have never been interested in creating a blog. I wouldn't be able to create regular blog posts, so I have a forum instead. If I had a blog most of my posts wouldn't be very long, because I can't spend very long typing articles, and I much rather manage a community.
