HANIfans

A conversation with a self-professed HANIfan, someone who reads HANI's HONEY (a blog) regularly, revealed how much she has come to know and empathize with the issues surrounding Hani's life. She knows what goes on in Hani's mind, she understands Hani's fears, desires and ambitions, she is able to relate to Hani's friends (most of whom have blogs of their own). She was there during TJ's latest admission to the Psycho Circus. She's aware of the multi-dimensional sexual appetites of Hani's other friends (links to their sites).

And she got all of this information by reading their various blogs. Amazing.

Blogging, for many, is a therapeutic means of expression. Hani, TJ, and many, many others listed in the Great Malaysian Blog List talk about their daily lives and issues that matter to them. Blog writers (myself included) may believe that their writing doesn't mean anything to anyone besides themselves and their close network of friends. It seems that this belief may be inaccurate.

People do care what bloggers write, and when the writing achieves an almost Betty la fea-like serial-ness about them, the following of these blogs can be quite addictive.
