Blogs for Communication

I checked out Kameron's site once again tonight, its become an evening and early morning habit of mine. I'm amazed by Kameron's positivity. I'm really astounded by the community that comments and follows his progress. And I am really glad to be able to read about how he is doing. He's a great kid.

The blog really serves as a mechanism of communication. When a family member is sick, there isn't time to keep everyone as updated as you would like. There really needs to be one point communication person who relays everything out. The blog in this instance does that, and keeps an ongoing journal. It provides an initimate insight to others of Kameron's life since he has been diagnosised with CML.

I'm writing on this because I just saw the top 20 definitions of blogging. I don't think you need 20 definitions. Blogging is communication, pure and simple. It is we, the bloggers, providing insights, tips, rants, or anything else to you the readers. I think the above blog does an excellent job of that in a very needed situation.
