time, privacy, cost and purpose

so apparently, for those that care, blogs are dead

no sooner had i read this article, i got an email from a friend announcing he was disbanding his… citing; various reasons for closure.

and fair enough i think, sometimes, in trying to post twice a week i feel like i’ve somehow signed up for my very own “thing a week“… now that i have a tumblr i’m VERY tempted to stop digging crap i find on the web and just link to them in my tumblr and make comments… but that effort would take away from time actually writing stuff here… so why not just link and comment here? because apparently (i need to find a better word), blogs are for long form writing and nobody has time to write them any more… let alone read them!

so i guess, i’ll keep posting news and long form thoughts, and keep posting other random internet stuff over there and even shorter tidbits here and we’ll all get along fine for the moment ok? ok.  

my problem is i don’t put enough planning or effort into proper posts, i tend to give each one about half a day of thought and about an hour of drafting, editing and publishing… hmm, maybe that’ll change… maybe.

if you’re still reading, surprise, i put up some new photos too





















next post: let’s not talk about quality
