Bird Lovers Only Rescue


With the simplicity of setting up a website and posting, blogs make an easy choice for people doing things like staring up new ideas, business ventures or charitable endeavors.

This blog ran for a good 4 years, trying to help rescue birds.
Maybe they'll start up again some day.

Project 'Cube 2007


When you've got a cool project to do and you want to announce it to the world... why not start a blog?

This person made a huge subwoofer designed just like a Rubik's cube. Pretty awesome DIY project if you ask me!

THE BOOK DESIGN REVIEW


When it's time for the curtain call, some people have enough respect to bow out gracefully.
This blog author published over 1,000 posts over five years, and when it just didn't feel right anymore he shut it down with a sign off post. Pretty good way to go.

Unclaimed Territory - by Glenn Greenwald


Sometimes bloggers are already accomplished journalists and authors.
This blogger was a litigator and an author of three bestselling books!

Israel's crimes against Lebanon


Some blogs can be very politically charged.
Whether you agree with the politics or not, you can't against the fact that self publishing gives people an easy way to get their message out to the internet for anyone to see.

THE KENTROVERSY PAPERS


Controversy?
No. Kentroversy.

Blogs give you a voice, and you get to pick how to use it.

SPANISH FORK CLASS OF 2004


Some blogs are merely placeholders, or areas to gather people together in a space on the internet.

Looks like this blog was a gathering place to get alumni from a specific high school all to share info with each other.
There are eleven other blogs of the same ilk, all set up for their individual graduation year.

Odds are these people all found each other, then ended up on facebook or somewhere else and left the blog in the empty internet space.
