Blog. Twitter. Tumble.
I tried blogging once. I never really got into it.
Like the old saying, “a mechanics car never runs well because they are too busy fixing other people’s cars”, my last blog/website was looking pretty rough after a while.
After a day at work making other people’s websites awesome, the last thing I wanted to do when I got home was spend a few hours in front of my PowerBook fiddling with code and writing posts on how Firefox’s latest update had broken my screenreader emulator plug-in, or how if Internet Explorer in all its variations was banned from the internet, web development project timelines would shrink by 50%.
No, blogging wasn’t for me.
Then I heard about Twitter, I watched people talk about it online for quite sometime, but had never had much interest in it as none of my friends or co-workers ever used it. Curiosity finally got the better of me and I registered for an account.
WOW! What a time-vampire that was. I came up with a few ideas on how to use Twitter for more productive purposes in a work environment. Then turned it off. The constant stream of updates on what people were having for lunch was making me hungry.
Then I found Tumblr. I am not sure how I found it, but when I saw what Tumblr does and more importantly how easily it does it, I thought; “this might actually be the shoe that fits”.
Let’s see how it goes.
