Why You Need To Stay From Blogging?

Darren had came up with more than 100 reasons why we blog from his tweet’s. At this blog, I had promoted blog as a very important tool.  Ted Murphy at IZEA blog think 2009 will be the year for blog. But, not everyone in fact every organization should blog.

For an individual, there could be more than 10 reasons why you need to stay away from blog.

10 most likely reason why you need to stay away from blog

1. You stop learning, or dedicate yourself to total mental block.
2. You think blog is time consuming.  Another form of time waster like watching TV, boring movies and other boring stuffs.
3. Because you’re too lame.  Therefore, you don’t have interesting things to say aside from hourly dairy or about your cat.
4. I love my family too much.  I don’t want to be addicted to blog.
5. The blogsphere already overloaded.  Adding blog post will only increase the blog landfill. Beside, only 55% blog updated after 3 months of existence.
6. No body will find out that it’s me.  Thus, nobody will also commenting on my blog let alone do what I ask them to do.
7. You don’t have your priorities straight so you lack the time to read blogs much less write a blog. Another way saying it, I can’t do it on a consistent basis.
8. You don’t know what the right platform to use, WordPress? LiveJournal? TypePad?.  Furthermore, you also don’t how to use blogging tool, even your’s 9 or 11 years old child is much better than you.  In other word, you don’t have any skills requires to run a blog.
9. You think this is not a journalism so don’t pretend.
10. I can achieve all this just by a simple newsletter therefore I don’t need a blog.  It is true sometimes, you don’t need to have a blog if all that is needed just a simple newsletter.

It’s not profitable

I found this reason from blog post made by Josh Maher, his final last two reasons was very compelling.

1. You have to be an A-list blogger first….than you can talk seriously about how blog is profitable.
2. There a bigger thing to do with your life (than blogging)

Any other additional reasons you think should be added to the list?
