Most of the regular readers in this space are also bloggers who write out of a similar set of motivations, so this transcript, aired originally on the Australian Broadcating Corporation's program (or is that programme?) The World Today, probably won't come as much of a surprise.
It is a report about research done at the Swinburne University of Technology, wherein they followed a group of young bloggers. The study revealed that while most of the participants started out in anxious or depressed states, over time there were improvements in their outlook. Moreover, the act of blogging helped them to break through their feelings of isolation.
Sounds a lot like the story on this blog over the past year and a half.
