communication

I just refered the blog Sex and Shanghai yesterday. In the evening I found it was shut down by himself, asking for a code to enter.
I'm wondering, is there still any motivation to write, for it can't be read by public?

I used to research in a group of people who was maintaining at least one blog. What I found was they all wanted be read. If there was no repond, they would feel dull to gosip to themselves, 'cuz that's no more than a diary.

That's why blog has become so popular since it was born. We got a platform to show what we get in life and search for what we wanna know. That's called communication.
