These are some general musings, hope you can hear me out. I've been reading some posts here recently about writing - someone going to write a book, someone who has their own blog, so on. It got me thinking if anyone else does something like this?
I've persistently thought on and off about writing a blog again. I used to write one years ago, it was a technical one though - I'm a software developer, so in my field they tend to encourage a blog of that style to be part of that community. I kept it up for a while, but then I ran out of ideas of what to write and other things took over in life, it just got dull I suppose. Now though I feel like I'd like the idea of a more creative blog, one where I would write about what interests me, like the films/shows I've seen and what I thought about them. I sometimes have this strong feeling of wanting to get my thoughts out of my head because otherwise they just get trapped with nowhere to go. In the absence of knowing many people who'd like to talk exactly about what I'd like, this seems like a good alternative.
I'm also reminded about two of my favourite podcasts I listen to. Both of them have a small group of people - 2, 3, maybe 4 people - talk about one topic in the area I'm most interested in. Listening to them makes me feel like that in real life for me would feel wonderful - except I suppose in real life people don't basically have conversations like talking on a panel 
Since I'm not much of a talker, writing I guess I could do. Pros I think would be getting my thoughts out there, even if no-one read it (I'm not looking for fame or fortune) and just emptying my head of all the imaginary conversations I wish I could have. Cons are that it might be quite time consuming, and I already have a lot of other things to do already.
