I've decided to finally take the plunge into blogging *yech*. I have resisted for a long time for two reasons:
- 99.9% of blogs are probably not worth reading, like the majority of other online content. Quantity doesn't = quality. I'm not here to bore people with stream of consciousness or the minutiae of my daily life. If I cannot at least make this worth reading for family and friends then I will promptly terminate it as a favor to the greater online community.
- The usability and privacy I was looking for in a blogging tool wasn't available. I just found Vox, which purports to have remedied that. We'll see.
The primary reason for not resisting any longer:
- More and more of my life is online, whether for better or worse even my latest attempt at exercising will probably soon be available to share. This convergence intrigues me. That coupled with a desire to grow both my 'real' and 'virtual' network of friends has pushed me over the edge.
So...the experiment begins...please bear with me as I get started...it may not be pretty ;)
