Back to the Blogosphere…Maybe
I’ve been thinking about getting back into blogging, but I haven’t quite decided whether or not it’s worth it. It’s easy to get caught up in the fervor of it. Plus, everyone blogs these days. I used to blog a lot a few years ago (going all the way back to Xanga and those crappy AOL chat blogs circa 2000) when posting was still a novelty, but now the mystique is gone. However, I definitely admire people who can keep up with it. Lord knows, I lose interest way too quickly. I can’t even begin to tell you how many blogs I’ve kept up, then deleted, then restarted, then forgot about, then started new ones, etc.
Still though, I miss the immediacy of the outlet. I can’t deny that it was fun. I’m still surprised that I met so many interesting people, when from that the start that was definitely not the intention. Lately though, I just feel like I’ve been trying to detach myself from Internet access. It seems so easy to take the blogosphere and the Internet itself for granted. When I was dead broke in the not-so-distant-past, I felt like I had been cut off from some sort of communicative oxygen, so to speak, when I couldn’t afford an DSL hookup. That whole experience just seemed odd to me, and it helped me put things in perspective.
Well, anyway, right now I’m only contemplating getting back into blogging. I haven’t decided whether or not I’ll make this a regular thing. I guess we’ll see.
Thanks all for now. Peace out.
