Blog Ideas

Hiya folks, how is everyone doing today? I would like your help in thinking of topics for the Vapor4Life Blog. What would you be interested in reading about? Do you read other vaping and ecig blogs? Any feedback would be most welcome!

I like hearing about what everyone's set up is and their favorite flavors. Also, about any encounters they have with others (good or bad reactions). It is always good to hear stories about how vapers helped their friends and family members become fellow vaper and the amount of support they are to each other when they share a love.

I'd like to read more on the topic of semantics - eg "e-cigs" versus "inhalers" (or some other catchy phrase that doesn't sound so tobaccoish), and if changing terminology (and perhaps shape, etc.) might find vaping being more accepted.

GOOD IDEA Batavia! I know I am trying really hard to not refer to it as my e-cig, but I have not yet been comfortable enough to say Personal Vapor. Over the long haul, I think it would help the industry to start branching away from cig like comparisons.

These are great suggestions. Please keep 'em coming, even if you think the idea might be silly.

I was just pondering that this morning while waiting for the mailman Mystic. What will I call this new friend? E-cig sounds like smoking. But you aren't smoking. I'd love to go somewhere they don't allow smoking and be able to vape! Certain names don't do it justice and others just sound silly.

I do like (even though I'm new) to read about other's favorites and their supplies as well. Plus any issues they have had with acceptance in the public and how they handled it. And the how-to's are very much appreciated as well.

LOL!! I have had that same problem. I don't know what to call it. Normally I just call it ecig to avoid confusion and having to explain things. But there are many choices, some funnier than others. And some are just plain inappropriate

There are so many things about vaping that sounds down right inappropriate... LOL, but maybe that is half the fun.

But seriously, I think Batavia brought up a good point that I have seen discussed before, but without a suitable solution. Personally, I just am not comfortable calling it my PV or Personal Vape(Vapor) and can actually see some backlash from that (I called it that to my elderly Mother today as an experiment, and I thought she was going to have heart failure!!!! To her it sounded very negative (drug like). But I am trying to overcome her adversion to it containing nicotine (and to think she was a smoker for 60+ years). So I really don't know what to do or think. Most people (other than my Mom) understand the term e-cig and know what that means as opposed to PV, but it still connects it to smoking and that alone always brings on the next set of questions.. so you are trying to Q?????

I'm sorry to hear that Mystic. Since I don't discuss my vaping with anyone I don't have those types of problems. But I know what my answer would be NEVER!!! Lol! Personally I stopped vaping once and it didn't go well. So I'm not planning on stopping anytime soon. That's probably as far as I can go on this forum without stepping on some toes...
