The Official Blog Has Begun

Okay, so I’ve finally fallen prey to the blog craze and started up my own blog. Somehow, someway while I was off making lots of little web pages for my web site (which used to be the cool thing to have, a web site, but now a web site isn’t half as cool as having your own blog, but wait, aren’t they really the same thing?) people starting making their own web blogs, and talking about everything under the sun, and the content was good, the content was fresh and new, and people talked about everyday life to current events to their dogs and kids or whatever, and everyone else in the world suddenly became interested. Now making a decent web page, or weblog, was as easy as typing an email to a friend. So much for all those years of learning .html (or Frontpage as the case may be) and making all those really sweet graphics in Photoshop and spending hours, days, weeks on just a single web page, now you can do it in minutes, and believe it or not, your blog could end up at the top of some Google search that someone did who wanted to know something that you just happened to write about. I find myself more interested in reading a well-written blog that was written yesterday, than to happen across some fancy web site with similar info but that’s a year old. Maybe it’s in all of us, the need to know, and stay on top of the things that are going on in the world. So this is it, this is my contribution, however insignificant it may be.
