Virtual Reality in the abstract condenses all the stuff you love into sub-microscopic data records. Your art collections, your much loved junk, that you don't want to toss, because then you'll never see it again, your books and books of notes, your ever growing library, can all fit in your pocket, or, anyway, on a shelf in your closet.

Maybe that's not all it's for, but it seems to me that's a pretty important function.

Here I'm condensing diary entries into sub-microscopic data records. That means I can do more diary entries. It means I can be the mad diarist, recording fing everything in a super giant jotter that fits in my pocket.

The diary is a string of things. Strings of things - time lines, is what they are - are one fundamental architecture for VR. And Blogger is actually pretty good at creating them. (It is, after all, for logging.)

But the string of things is only one of two architectures for VR. The other one is Space. We've got Time Line VR and Space VR, also called 3D. For time line VR we have Blogger (metaphorically speaking). For 3D we've got nothing.

Blogger is Time Line VR for everyone. It's super easy to use. Sure, there's 3D, but it is not for everyone. Niche Niche Niche.
