Baker, J.R. & Moore, S.M. (2008). Blogging as a Social Tool: A Psychosocial Examination of the Effects of Blogging. CyberPsychology & Behavior, 11(6).
Abstract:
New MySpace users (N=58) were surveyed on joining the site and again in 2 months to examine psychosocial differences between bloggers and nonbloggers over time. Bloggers’ social integration, reliable alliance, and friendship satisfaction all significantly increased compared to nonbloggers, suggesting that blogging has beneficial effects on well-being, specifically in terms of perceived social support.

To Dr. James Baker
I have just read some of your posts. I would like to read the rest later, as I liked the simply rich language you used while writing the hard subject as psychology.
I am a writer. If you are interested in short stories and paintings, then a flying visit to my blogs would be a good idea.
