is blogging vain?

i just started thinking right now, because i remember seeing earlier today on tv that in some asian country (sorry i cant remember which) they have the highest concentration of food blogs/bloggers (people who's entire blogs are about food and restaurants), and i thought to myself... what does america have the highest concentration of, as far as blog content? (cuz i was doing that "next blog" thing) and each blog was "so and so's life journey" "my random ramblings" "me" "so and so's path to becoming a porn star" whatever! point being... they were all pretty self centered blogs... and i got to thinking... is it vain that all we wanna write about is ourselves and anything that has to do with US? i also am guilty of this on my blog... so im not trying to point fingers or anything or try and make a movement for "selfless blogging"... i was just wondering out loud... and for a split second i thought... i should start a new blog like "chronicles of Jason Ziegfried (a random man)" and just really blog about somebody OTHER than myself or post things that have nothing to do w/me or what i like or what i dont or any of that... hmmmmm... interesting right?

i mean... is it, in the end, to our benefit that we like to write/share/blog about our selves and our life conquests? or are we using our right to free speech to stroke our ego's? lolz... i dunno...

end of random thought process.
