It's blog-o-riffic

"C'mon, do it. EVERYBODY'S DOING IT!"

Generally, I don't give into the masses, do what others do just for the sake of keeping up with the Jones'. And admittedly I thought bloggers were political radicals spouting off their abstract views into cyberspace...space...black holes...who's reading that blog sh*t anyway? How is it really making a difference?

But the recent addition of blogs by friends and acquaintances has me reconsidering...slowly I'm getting that it is not about the READERS, although certainly the prospect of making an intellectual connection with any one reader would be thrill. It's really about the WRITER, the opportunity to vent, speak, type, express...therapeutic at best, and let's face it we all could use a little therapy.

So I've decided to blog. Not so much for the Joneses, but for me.

Now the name. This one stumped me...Funny, witty, cute, clever spelling, ethical, statement-based...which to choose?

Eco-minded sums it up, although FRUGAL-ICIOUS was a close second. (Those that know me well know that's within my core) But you can't be frugal without being ECO-MINDED, so ECO-MINDED it is.

Thanks for blog-o-riffic inspiration from these fellow bloggers
