Because I don't, simply because I'm not a very talkative person and I'm afraid of sounding incorrect on certain matters.
But since I have a lot of stuff that I want to share, I'm thinking about really committing myself to writing a blog.
I'm conflicted. Advice?
You want a tumblelog (the new buzzword!)....not a blog. What's a tumblelog you ask?
The only good blogs I've read are written in constantly and/or have many, many previous posts AND they must have a central theme and naturally what they say has to make sense to me.Quote:
A tumblelog is a quick and dirty stream of consciousness, a bit like a remaindered links style linklog but with more than just links. They remind me of an older style of blogging, back when people did sites by hand, before Movable Type made post titles all but mandatory, blog entries turned into short magazine articles, and posts belonged to a conversation distributed throughout the entire blogosphere. Robot Wisdom and Bifurcated Rivets are two older style weblogs that feel very much like these tumblelogs with minimal commentary, little cross-blog chatter, the barest whiff of a finished published work, almost pure editing...really just a way to quickly publish the "stuff" that you run across every day on the web.
I consider what most people do as tumblelogging...which is what I do as well.
I'm not much of a talker at all and I have nothing interesting to write about, hence...
The Photoblog!
a blog? meh.. those things are SOOO 2004 :rolleyes:
blogs are a great way to get things off your chest.
Contrary to popular belief they don't have to be nor should be journals.
Down with the Blogs!
I barely write in my blog... not as angry lately. Or inebriated.
I dont mind people making them or anything.
But, I am tired of hearing about them all the time.
Maybe something just bugs me about the word "blog"?
yeah... it's a shortened two-word term... ranks in annoyance with cosplay.
another annoyance.
Must be just the word "blog" that bugs me then,
because "cosplay" annoys me too.
I think the coffee lounge is some people's blog.

I wrote this program called it autoblogger, essentially it runs in the background of the computer and all I have to do is write anything on like notepad or whatever and hit the printscreen key. Autoblogger listens in on the printscreen key and then immediately takes a screenshot of the comp and uploads the data in jpg format. There's no RSS standards, just a raw jpg and a timestamp. The whole process gets a little confusing when I acutally have to use the printscreen key, and sometimes I don't want to divulge what I have on my computer at the time, so it's hit an miss, mostly miss.
i have 4, one for the flash community, one for fun, two just for experiments with traffic and adsense.
I have a photoblog that desperately needs updating.
Mostly blogs are for people to whine about their crappy sub $10.00/hr jobs, their lame life, or just to beg for money. I find very little in the blog world worth reading.....very little.
harsh man...that's pretty cynical, even for you :)Quote:
