I said I don't like them at all since most of the time they just go on and on and on about a topic and for the most part they are just no fun to read. I have only read a few that are worth it and well I rather stick to news articals that mean something over one persons view!

I'm honestly indifferent to them. There seems to be a huge majority of terrible blogs with only a few well writen/informative/entertaining ones that shine through. I don't read them often, and I've no interest in writing one.
It seems the introduction of the blog has made people think they are much more interesting or more intelegent or qualified, then they actually are. Most seem to be ill-informerd rants or asinine observations. The bad part is that often these are taken at face value, and the source of the information is not concidered.
I don't have anything against people writing (I think people should do it more), but it would be nice to see quality over quantity. It would be nice to see more opinions based on fact. Thats why I prefer published articles and editorials.

I don't read them, and I don't write one.

I don't mind them but at least half of the blogs I know of are just ramblings by attention whores.

I like them. Most of them are not worth to read but there are exceptions.
I regularly ready a couple of them that are dedicated to certain fields on interest. I don't have any friend that has one, but I have one myself. I update it a couple of times each month, some times more often. Usualy on some news related item.

couldn't agree more.
Although there are 1-2 bloggs every 3 months that'll get posted. they will be full of sattire, sarcasm, and all the things I love to read so I will read them. I will never hunt and read through others to get a hold of them.
