Lisa Tabet-Chavez always kept a journal. When blogging came along, it was a natural progression for her. A way to be creative, to speak her mind, to capture moments that are too easily lost in the busy-ness of life. In this episode, Lisa has posted a letter to her small daughter.
While acknowledging that everyone would like to be discovered as the next big blogger, Lisa's advice is to simply write for yourself and your friends. "If your writing makes you happy, it will make other people happy." Someday, Lisa's daughter will read this letter and feel just that.
About the series: The Culture of Content Creation is a video series about people who make their own digital content for sharing - such as blogs, podcasts, wiki entries, online product reviews or videos - to learn why they do it, what they find rewarding, and how they view their role in the world. Started in early 2008, this cultural media project from Elastic Lab continues today, reflecting changes in technology, knowledge, and the social fabric of the Internet.
