"People used to write beautiful letters; so beautiful, in fact, that people saved them. Today, grandchildren can read letters written by serviceman getting ready to be deployed; or rare letters from a WW II POW in Burma to his wife who thought he was dead. People wrote diaries with their most intimate thoughts, not realizing that someone would eventually read them – if not a nosy brother, it would be a tearful grandchild fifty years later. Those letters and diaries were their blogs."
