Why do we blog? MLS/MIS Student bloggers that is.

A month or so back, Joy at Wanderings of a Student Librarian posted a list of MLS students in the blogosphere. Inspired by Joy's list, I thought it might be interesting to know why MLS/MIS students blog. I passed that thought by Joy and she thought it was a fine idea. So, I ask, if you are a MLS or MIS student, why do you blog? For fun, to communicate, to learn, to share? But, I don't want to limit this to current students; if you have graduated but blogged while in school I'd like to hear from you as well. Post your thoughts on why you blog or find a post in the past that sums it up for you and send me the permalink at travis.ennis[at]gmail[dot]com. Send them to me by October 1 and in the first week of October I'll post a Carnival of MLS/MIS Student Bloggers.
