Once again main stream media is promoting another Internet phenomena. It is said that art imitates life and the just released Julie and Julia movie is sure to be another premium example of this.

In case you don’t know, Julie and Julia is a movie that parallels the story of two women who overcome their fears as they embark on a new paths in life. Julie is a writer turned office worker who feels powerless in her job, and Julia, who becomes the famous Julia Child, feels she has no direction in her life. Both characters learn to overcome their environment and their own personal fears to become more than they ever thought they could be.

Here is the 2 minute movie trailer to give you a sense of what the story is all about.

Overall, this movie emphasizes the worn spirit of the modern office worker, and it shows how blogging offers up a whole new world of possibilities to anyone who has the desire to be heard. Julie even says in the movie, “I can write a blog. I have thoughts!”

This is true of anyone. It’s true of you. Everyone has ideas and thoughts, and everyone wants people to be heard. I think this movie is going to push blogging further into the awareness of everyone who sees it and it will inspire people everywhere to create their own blog and unleash their own dreams.

The movie doesn’t talk about running an online business. That conversation will happen on sites like Open Source Marketer, over Twitter discussions and at Meetup groups like the Frisco Internet Entrepreneurs. Regardless of where they take place, you can bet they will happen. Movies like Julie and Julia inspire imaginations and change the way people see themselves and the world around them.

I can’t wait to have those conversations over the next few weeks,
