Now I haven't consulted scientific works on the subject in order to establish an objective definition of the concept. But by using my commonsense I could imagine that it orginally and literally speaking means something like 'through form'. And words and letters is an artform like any other medium. Thus we speak of a performing art in its own right, I should say. And that's exactly the good part of the blog. Unless you suffers from hypergraphy - an obsessive uncontrolled urge for writing (read this article in Week-end avisen if you should be interested in the phenomenon, which by the way is related to the question of the origins of creativity: http://www.weekendavisen.dk/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20080801/IDEER/708010065/-1/ideer) then writing blog must rank along acting, singing, playing, painting etc. etc. and thus potentially speaking be creativly satisfying in the same way. So that's another good reason for keeping up the blog-writing.. ;-) ..You asked for a comment regarding the idea of a blog as performance, dear Barbara.
