Survival of the Fittest

Only copy and paste will survive

 

Blogs’ ability to change will strengthen their possibilities to survive for years to come, even after the author is gone. I have always been a strong believer that everything humans do in life is aimed at attaining immortality, not living forever but to be remembered. Writing something on a medium which by its nature is able to adapt to changing technology will guarantee this.

 

Because blogs consist of text, text which can be easily transformed from one form to another meaning flexibility they will be with us for a very long time. Even with the fast paced development of software (thanks to Mr. Gates)  things like blogs will always be able to adapt, they are just text in most cases. The internet will always be there, the internet will outlive all of us. The internet not having a central base but rather existing in the infirnity of cyberspace is not something that can be shutdown (although Mr. Bush would like to) it doesn’t have an on/off switch.

 

If someone wanted to leave their ideas written down for future generations to read long after he/she is gone can do it very easily. He/she can just create a personal website or blog write what ever he/she wanted to write about, especially in blog’s because they are free and just leave it there without having to look back at it or think twice about it.

 

I would recommend to anyone who wants to write their ideas for others to read, to do it on a personal blog. As I said, they are free, don’t expire, and require no maintenance.
