I have a 'blog', though you could hardly say it is personal. It use to write about politics, throw on some editorials I have written in the past, and make small comments from time to time. I think the thing gets updated maybe three or four times a month, but they are usually larger posts.
As for disciplinary actions being taken by schools towards what is written online, that is ridiculous. The school should hold not jurisdiction off their grounds, and claiming that they now have the authority to penalize something that was said online... Perhaps if a student was caught writing on school grounds, alright. Otherwise, it is much like a journal, and should taken as such. Quite often, these things are used to vent about what has occured to a person on a daily basis, much like a traditional journel does. The only difference, people can access the blog. Does it make any different? Not particularly. These people are, essentially, exhibitionists, and enjoy the attention.
Oh, for those interested, you can reach my little piece of the web through my signature.
