Increasingly, bloggers are giving the Spanish branch of social relationships in virtual real interaction, and visual contact
with the same physical space, like once a month in Madrid at the meetings "Beers & Blogs", where a beer hand commented on their lives.
These meetings convene people with different jobs and interests, advertisers, writers, administrators, athletes or students who "know people in an area basically fun," he told Efe the organizer of this event and a professor at the Universidad Complutense, Octavio Rojas .
What they like to people is entertainment, fun fact, and this is where lies the success of blogs, according to Rojas, who explained that there is a direct relationship between the fun and popularity of social networks , which include Facebook and Twitter.
The most significant aspect of the "Beers & Blogs", held the last Wednesday of each month at a cafe chosen by the organizer, is a melting pot of diverse people who come together without anyone having made a prior selection.
At the last meeting, on July 29, brought together people who organized rallies in solidarity, commentators and even weather specialists in finance, it is clear that "there is no common interest," said Octavio Rojas.
BEERS AND BLOGS
In Spain, these meetings between bloggers and their
followers are held for five years, and informality has been from the beginning not only a feature but also a goal. "First are the beers and then the blogs," has also highlighted the blogger Rojas.
According to him, the depth or superficiality of human relations are not dependent on the medium, as many believe, but the people themselves and the time devoted to the relationship.
In this sense, the Internet social networking are making forms of interaction between people change and this can be best observed among adolescents who use Twitter to say what they are doing at the moment, no matter who reads it has Rojas continued.
Technology has facilitated the fact that people can close a larger number of relationships and with social networks, this has been enhanced.
Rojas has said that everything that happens in society happens in the network, but with greater force.
MEETINGS BETWEEN Bloguero
More than half of bloggers Hispanic (55.4 percent) had personally known bloggers between 5 and 20 since they started to write blogs, according to the III Profile Bloguero survey conducted by the Hispanic Center of the Spanish cyberspace.
In this study, women have little representation in the Latino blogosphere, and of course, at meetings of the bloggers made evident.
Irene, aged 21, journalist and Murcian blogging, which came first to a "Beers & Blogs", believes the main reason for the minority of women in the blogosphere is "a set of social prejudices that survive until today."
Octavio Rojas, for his part, maintains that "they are essentially consumers of
information and content they generate," perhaps as a result of which also play roles in society.
