It seems sometimes I just need to rant, say what I feel on what I see, the injustices of daily life, and the world around me, as I perceive it, so, I am considering this blogging thing, as I believe, with a blog, I can just write, instead of polluting website forums with my feelings, also I have said my bit to the world whether they are listening or not. So, myself knowing zilch about blogging, can I ask where and how to do it ?

Who else blogs, and what do you get from it ?

You could start a yahoo group and the messages then archive there.

Or- could use google sites.

both are free

You can also write your Senator or political rep who may have a chance to change what you are ranting about. It may not have the convenience of a blog, but it may actually do something if someone who has the ability to change the issues can use your rant to promote change.

I use LiveJournal and love it.  Blogging those rants is very cathartic.  I'd recommend it to anyone.  Alternately, if you happen to enjoy or prefer the visual medium of video, you can create a "vlog" (video blog) on YouTube.  One of the benefits (or drawbacks depending on how you look at it) of YouTube is that you get instant feedback -- not all of it positive.

I write a lot, but I don't share it - unless it's good. If I read it and say 'damn!', then it becomes a slam poem - and I subject the audience to it at an open mic. 
Very cathartic, sometimes artistic, occasionally clever - and with flashes of brilliance, but they don't like it when you flash in public...
