== Anime & Manga ==
* Prussia in ''[[Axis Powers Hetalia]]'' kept one on April Fool's Day until he dropped his ice cream on his laptop and broke it. The blog can be found [http://spazzy.starry-sky.com/oresamanosite/t.html here].
* The four main characters of ''[[Black Lagoon]]'' have [[My SpaceMyspace]] pages. They've not been updated in a while, but entail the characters introducing themselves. Anyone familiar with the series would see these introductions as plausible the characters might say in such a circumstance. The blogs are as follows: [http://www.myspace.com/lagoonbenny Benny], [http://www.myspace.com/lagoondutch Dutch], [http://www.myspace.com/lagoonrevy Revy], and [http://www.myspace.com/lagoonrock Rock].
* As part of the promotion for the [[Updated Rerelease]] of ''[[Chaos;Head]]'', seven character blogs, one for each of the girls and one for protagonist Takumi, appeared on the website.
* The protagonists(?) of ''[[Disgaea]]'' also have their own [[My SpaceMyspace]] pages, up to and including bickering with each other in the comments page. More amusingly, the Black Lagoon characters link the ''[[Disgaea]]'' characters as their friends, and vice versa.
* Albert from ''[[Gankutsuou]]'' had a [http://albert0829.blogzine.jp/index/ blog] written by, iirc, the scenario writer of the series as an unofficial sequel to the series. It chronicled his days on Janina where he met various people from his past, including someone who was ''very'' heavily implied to be the Count in disguise. His friends from Earth often left comments on the entries. (Before you start wondering: yes, it ''was'' officially recognized. The [http://gankutsuou.blogzine.jp/ official blog] even links to it.)
* The English versions of ''[[Suzumiya Haruhi|The Melancholy Of Haruhi Suzumiya]]'' and ''[[Lucky Star]]'' both have Myspace accounts, from Kyon and Minoru respectively. They're apparently run by Bandai.
Line 51:
* [[Garfield]] has a [[Facebook]] [http://www.facebook.com/Garfield account].
* Hell, even [[Johnny the Homicidal Maniac]] has a (creepy) [http://twitter.com/Johnny_C Twitter], presumed to be run by [[Jhonen Vasquez]].
* The syndicated comic ''Luann'' had a short arc where Luann and Tiffany have a competition to see which of their [[My SpaceMyspace]] pages can get more friends. Both page addresses appeared in the comic; both actually exist on the web and are written as if by the two characters.
* MODOK has a blog on the [[Marvel]] website.
* Cooper from the print comic [[Retail]] [http://retailcomic.ning.com/profiles/blogs/new-new-digs has his own], though it's rarely updated, and he mentions Norm Feuti often, in a delicate mix of "reality" and comic reality.
Line 70:
* There's a set of ask blogs on Tumblr for the X-Men, mostly based on ''First Class'', which has now extended to ask blogs for their inexplicably-sentient clothing and inanimate objects.
* There are also ask blogs and character blogs for other Marvel characters on Tumblr, including a very well done [[The Mighty Thor|Thor-based]] roleplay.
* [http://dibnydiary.blogspot.com/ The Diary of Ralph Dibny] covers the Elongated Man's increasingly deranged thoughts as his [[Fifty Two|52]] storyline progresses.
 
 
Line 112:
** They've stepped things up a notch since season 2 began. The characters now also use twitter to verbally abuse each other on a regular basis.
* Randy from ''[[My Name Is Earl]]'' has a blog on the NBC website.
* The serial killer Carver from ''[[Nip Tuck]]'' had a [[My SpaceMyspace]], in which he would post videos about his motives and philosophy of life, and finally, unmasking.
* ''[[The Office]]'' has blogs for Dwight, Meredith, and Creed.
** Actor Brian Baumgartner wrote a blog as his character Kevin.
Line 139:
== Professional Wrestling ==
* [[CHIKARA]] has an example of the concept done in wrestling, as periodically on their web site new blog posts from members of their roster writing in character are uploaded.
** It could be argued that most pro wrestlers in the indy scene with [[My SpaceMyspace|MySpaces]] would be doing this as well, most notably Vin Gerard, Chris Hero and all the 'guest columnists' on wwe.com
