When It’s Time to Change

Why do you visit this blog?

Over the past four months, I have been asking myself

  • why do I blog?
  • should I continue blogging?
  • what is my blog really?

I started blogging before it was termed blogging. (Unfortunately, I don’t have most of my original posts.) I enjoyed sharing links and quick thoughts when the internet was still geek. The web is mainstream now. The novelty of posting for other geeks in our secret clubhouse is gone.

Now, daily journals are cliche and I don’t like feeding creepy stalkers.

I already expound on new media stuff on the Emersive Digital Media Blog and the web doesn’t need another web standards advocate. (Really, supposed big name web developers or supposed “a-list” bloggers don’t have anything worthwhile to say anymore.)

I don’t have anything new to add to the political dialog. My posting on political issues is primarily to vent.

My only other hot issues are intellectual property and environmental concerns. Again, my eloquence is eclipsed (but not by any supposed “a-list” bloggers).

While I ponder the future of this space online, I am going to post several back blogs. These are posts that I started writing, but did not have time to complete and post.

The back blogs start tomorrow. I hope you enjoy! (Another question: Who am I doing this for?)

    If only I were less busy and able to write about what’s going on in my life in an interesting manner… I bore myself writing about daily events. lol

    ummm… there are “a-list” bloggers?

    seriously, i enjoy reading your blog. i like that is just like sporadical (america, 9/11, saddam, freedom, democracy, democrafreedom, sporadical) information, opinions and thoughts.

    i know this post is old, so no one will read the comment, but oh well.
