I've been checking out Nuffnang's innit posts and I don't really get the big hoo-haa over alot of things, especially with fellow bloggers now "identifying" disgusting bloggers and thus ranking them based on how disgusting they are.
XiaXue made the topic hot back in 2007, ranking bloggers like Steven Lim, Ice angel, Maia Lee and even Lao Zha Bor. Her post is here
That did create an uproar and many weren't pleased with her post. However, the fuss soon died down and may didn't bring it up. Until recently...
It seems as though almost every blogger is trying to "gain attention/fame" by posting lists of disgusting bloggers so that people would read, and thus increase their traffic flow to their blog.
I'm not bothered about the traffic flow at all. What I'm bothered about, is the fact that everyone is coying each other, by listing bloggers as disgusting!
how would you feel if you were one of the those who is listed as disgusting? You may be thick skinned and shrug it off as the most hilarious thing you've ever heard. But not everyone is like that isn't it?
Besides, blogging sites like Nuffnang has aims and that is to bring fellow bloggers together, Not destroy everyone by having them blog about each other.
I don't really know, but I think the blogosphere is lacking originality and everyone is copying each other lately. Where have all the wondrous posts full of originality and creativity gone? Is this what is becoming of fellow bloggers?
XiaXue made it hot, but that doesn't mean you MUST copy her. Get your own Hot topic.
i totally agree with you !
ReplyDeleteand a lot of ppl are abusing Innit nowadays with those misleading titles. its quite pathetic actually.
