Teenie Blogs

I stumbled accross a brilliant article in Freitag online today which talks about teenagers being the new blogging royalty. This doesn’t surprise me at all as  more than anything teenagers have more TIME than aynone else to do things. When I was a teenager (sooo long ago ) I remember I would spend whole evenings reading or chilling or whatever. Now I have a billion other things I need to get done / want to do in the precious few hours between work and sleep. Teenagers are familiar with technology and can easily access tools to create relatively sophisticated blogs. It is also REALLY easy nowadays to insert picture, video, audio and interactive material into a space online, without having to learn complicated computer languages. Nevertheless I take my hat off to these blogs :

Style Rookie: A 13 year old fashionista. I actually love this blog at the moment. It’s really refreshing and reminds me a lot of me. I used to make loads of scrapbooks of stuff and was (and still am) an obsessive picture horder. My old room was covered in pictures I’d cut out of style magazines. Dressing up, obsessing about pretty things and taking photos were (and still are) high on my list of things I like to do, but she’s already a lot better than I ever was on the actual fashion.
