Is blogging performance art?

The thought occured to me when I was brushing my teeth two minutes ago.

I guess it is and it isn't. It can be just as much a performance as stereotypical gender or just as little performance as going to the grocery store to buy tomatoes. When the lines blur, the only thing to do, is keep on going.

I'd say that for me my blog is a heaping part performance, as in modelling what I do and reproducing it electronically in a designed and displayed format for others to bear witness to and to interact with.

That is a really adept interpretation of the blogging process.

And while I am sure other people have been beating the topic ceaslessly for years, I can't help thinking about how interesting this whole blogging phenomenon really is. Freedom of expression sent out into the world...technology really has the potential to be a liberator. It's remarkable.
