Today is October 26th, 2008, and this will probably be my only blog entry of the day. On October 26th, 2003, I published a whopping 20 blog entries. Why do I blog less often now? My life certainly hasn’t gotten any more boring than it was when I spent most of my time sitting in a dorm room watching Strong Bad cartoons and missing home. Now I do much more exciting things, like read movie plots on Wikipedia.
I often feel like I have writer’s block, but I can think of a few reasons why I don’t have as much to say on my blog. First of all, I have more places to share things now. I use Twitter for quick updates, and I use Google Reader to share links. Go ahead and follow/subscribe to those if you want more constant updates from me. I’d also like to think that I’ve become more picky about the quality of my blog entries. This should mean a better quality experience for you, my readers.
It looks like it was five years ago that I first tried a video chat. I’ve been using it so long now (to talk with my family) that I forgot how novel the concept used to be. On this day in 2004, I blogged four times, all about Wesley Willis. I hear Mike is a fan. In 2005, I blogged about my dreams, science, and zombies. I wish I could remember what the dream was; I guess it was too personal to blog. Maybe I need a diary. I didn’t blog at all on October 26th, 2006 or on this day last year.
Wow, did I call this or what? They even have a “from the Moon” backdrop called “Earthrise.”
I think it’s the other way around — more boring life = more blog posts. So you’re really coming along!!!
