How blogging became so mainstream
In the early 2000s, blogging was still a relatively new phenomenon. But by 2004, it had become clear that this form of online journaling was here to stay. A whole host of new blogs were created that year, covering everything from politics to pop culture. Major media outlets began to take notice of the power of blogging, and some even began hiring bloggers to write for them. By 2006, blogging had become so mainstream that Time magazine named it one of the most influential inventions of the year. Today, there are millions of blogs on the internet, with new ones being created every day. It's safe to say that blogging is here to stay!
