Sadly, I’ve become very annoyed with 90% of the blogs I come across. Poorly written, run-on sentences, lolcat-speak everywhere… Then there’s the worst offender of all: people who sneak in paid links in every one of their blogs, regardless of what the subject is or whether it relates. It’s like a game, where they have to post about one random thing that details their life, and sneak in a link to something that doesn’t have any effect on them whatsoever but might put a buck or two in their bank account.

I understand that people need money. I do. But it feels like exploitation when it happens to the degree that it is on most of the blogs I see. I lose interest in the people who write them, and I stop caring about their problems. The way I see it, if blogging about some horrible problem in your life is so trivial to you that you can’t dedicate an entire entry to it and not sneak in some advertising link that nobody will click on anyway, then why should I worry about that problem or feel sympathy?

That said, I really am looking for good, witty, well-written blogs. I want some entertainment, and to read about other people’s days, lives, problems, exciting news… Anything that isn’t spam-linked and/or doesn’t look like it was written by a five-year-old is good for me!
