I JUST DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO WITH MYSELF
So I don't know what to do with this blog. I started it way back in 2001. Yeah. More than 10 years ago. Before there was a FaceSpace. Before I even knew what a CMS was. Back then the blog was just a big long HTML file that got longer and longer with each post.
But then things changed. People wanted comments and to be able to link to posts and such. So the whole shebang moved over to Blogger and that worked out just great from the fall of 2004 all the way up to last year. But then Blogger had to go and mess with things which forced my URL change and a whole bunch of other problems. Yadda yadda yadda I haven't updated this in over a year.
Enter the march of time. Now we've got the Facebook updates and the Twitter updates and all this stuff and who has time to read blogs? Nevermind crappy personal blogs? That's a good question.
Meanwhile, Google has let Blogger languish into an embarrassment. I read that updates are coming soon, but c'mon. Let's go. Not to mention the fact that there is no official Blogger app for iOS, yet there is one for Android. Tell me, Google ... which do you think is more likely: I'll ditch my iPhone for Android so I can use a native Blogger app OR I'll ditch Blogger for Tumblr or WordPress so I can manage my blog from my iPhone.
And so there it is. The elephant in the room. Or, since Tumblr has a thing against the letter 'e' I guess it's the lphant in the room. I don't know what to do. I just know I miss the exercise of writing in bursts that are over 140 characters.
