Well, I forgot about my blog and having been posting on it in like forever. I smile now remembering starting it 6 years ago. My first blog was on blogger and you couldn’t have categories as a widget there, but I read a tutorial on how to use Delicious tags to make it look like categories. Spent like a whole night trying to figure it out! At that point WordPress seemed like a distant planet to me.
Now I can install wordpress blog in a matter of minutes and it is possible to launch websites on wordpress that would be sufficient for 9o% of websites on the web. However, blogging lost its allure somewhere along the way – famous bloggers stopped blogging, twitter appeared, facebook became open to everyone. LinkedIn became like Twitter, Facebook became like Twitter, Google became like Facebook, Facebook became like Google.
Today I realized that between Twitter feeds, FB feeds, emails, ad copy, flyers, bills, invoices it is been forever since I read or wrote something solid. Something that takes time to write, but really helps me to get my mind off things.
Luckily for me, I don’t need this blog anymore for any kind of promotion. Business is going well and our own projects are well underway. Which gives me a lot of freedom of expression – when you don’t think about linkbait, meta tags or correct keyword balance – some nice text can flow.
So I Resurrected my blog, to sometime put my thoughts out – for once without trying to promote it. Lol. I also think I might be not the only one, some people will get tired of the fast food of information and will come back to quality over the quantity. Being wired 24/7 was very cool in 2005 to me, now being not wired seems cool and a smart thing to do…
