Free to Speak, Free to Post?


" I just want to talk !! "

Blogging redefine the meaning "freedom of speech", but many parties think this is going beyond and above the freedom, and yet uncontrolable. Those who want to be free and those who want to constrain — blogging also provides new opportunities for communication and anonymity (world press, 2006).
Based on the article, free speech is one of the most discuss issue in around countries like London and the states, especially inside business oriented site. Like i said in my postings "Blog for many reasons", this issue is totally affected by how people judge the usage of blogging in a good way. I have listed out most of the reasons why blog, but anyone who go beyond that and in the same time being offensive towards some other parties, it is totally out from the usage of blogging.

Bloggers fight for their right that they just want to talk and always thought it is harmful for them to just post what ever they feel like want to say, but study shows blogging is one of the biggest actions in Internet so far, and also obtained the most viewee. Isnt that be strong enough to affect and be harmful if the information posted are some sort of brain washing? This happen in China for instance where, blogging is booming in China with the number of bloggers expected to hit 60 million by the end of year 2006, and the number is for sure rising above (world press, 2006)

Therefore, to make bloggers ro register before they started, i think it is quiet necessary, where the government at least find a solution to control what should and what shouldnt be post before it is too late. I am someone who support the freedom of speech as well, but it is just a freedom for you to speak (or speech) with someone but not the freedom for you to post. I will always take account on my words maybe be offensive to some people, and hence, i never wanted to touched or go any nearer to issues which are sensitive to be talk about.

Always remember, free to speak but maybe not free to post.
