Where did all the Blogs go?

Ok... So I was just thinking about our blog, and how we have totally let it go... We haven't posted since July of 2010... so almost 8 full months. So... I sat down to write a new post, to get "caught up" with all of our friends. And, of course I couldn't think of a thing to write on the blog. So I did the normal thing, I went looking at all of our friends blogs. And I felt SO relieved! At least half of the blogs are completely devoid of posts within the last year. Some have even been abandoned for 2 full years. My sister... well, she only has two posts on her blog. Have we all become so dependent on facebook that blogging has become obsolete? I'm not saying that the entire world is trending away from blogs, but I have noticed that the only thriving blogs have been those dedicated to a specific topic. Do we now get our "fix" of friends through facebook... what is almost completely a voyeuristic tool to see how our friends are doing, without them knowing we are checking on them? Oh, of course we write our little "I love this pic" and "Haven't talked in a while" little notes on peoples walls, but most of the time we lack enough gumption to write a status on serious topics.

Well... I want everyone to know that I love you, even if you don't post on your blog anymore...
