Hey Bloggers, as I sit here blah blogging away, I am finding myself writing more and more in an attempt to blog to riches and I am also finding myself running out of things to blah blah blog about again in the blogosphere of a zillion blogs. Maybe it’s some sort of writers block, or blogger burnout or something. What are bloggers writing about these days and what do bloggers do when they run out of things to blog about? Or does that ever happen. And what happens if ones stops blogging altogether? Is there life after blogging? Is there life after the Internet? As there was life before the Internet was invented, wasn’t there? And what’s the purpose of blogging again? Is it to ramble and rant to an online diary or journal or something. I wonder if at some point I may start writing about every word in the dictionary just to have something to blog about. This blogging whatever random thoughts that come to mind in a web 2.0 social media networking technology thing world has got me going.![]()

Thoof It
Thoof? What is Thoof? And what is Thoofing? Is that like goof, goofy and goofing? Well, the word Thoof sounds like it could be some sort of verb, an action word. And instead of sitting here writing about Thoofing, let me take a look at the website to learn more. Oh, Thoof is a website that offers a service for personalized news. Their website has all user generated content and I am a fan of social media and web 2.0 user generated content websites these days as the web 2.0 user generated content websites to be found on the Internet these days are endless. Web 2.0 rocks. Users at the Thoof community can personalize their articles, collaboratively edit articles and rank links to other articles and blog entries, the community can then vote on the editorial changes. This site almost sounds like a version of Digg and even Wikipedia to me. Their site has the Thoof Rank Badge where one can rank good or popular articles with the “thoof it” button. Users can submit stories from other websites with this button that they think are interesting by adding the link, title, summary and tags of the story. You can even submit a post from your own site to theirs to see how popular it is and their site also seems to know how to read your mind to figure out what stories you prefer to read and what stories you do not find interesting; interesting. Thoof seems to be a recently started website. If you are a newsaholic, one can thoof off all day long and night at their website. This is a sponsored post.![]()

So if anyone knows of any other great topics to write about, let me know. This new social media, user generated content thing has really got me going.
