Blogging is a word derived from the word web log or in other words a diary which is posted for everyone to see. Flogging is sometimes incidently included into a person's blog post as the person discusses his or her unhappiness about what happened during the day.
So, here's the big question. Is it ok to flog a person through blogging?
The aftermath of flogging someone may sometimes be different from what we expect. Often, bloggers just wish to vent their frustrations on their blogs forgetting about its consequences.
I believe that as it is a blog, we should be given the freedom to vent our frustrations. However, venting our frustrations does not mean that we have to flog the person we are unhappy with. I believe that as the blog is being made public and also made known to the world, we should try to restrain our words and try not let our anger overwhelm us. Flogging can cause terrible consequences such as defamation and lack of friends to the victim. One might also be charged with slandering if he makes false accuses to someone in a fit of anger.
I believe that bloggers can be more discreet about their anger when venting it through their blogs. Names should be kept confidential and the person's nickname or initials should not be used, lest other's recognise the other party.
