So, I decided to start a blog. I’ve been toying with the idea for some time now, not being one to geek out on the latest gadget. I don’t hang out on the edge very often. The edge can get dangerous – one step away from disaster. My dad broke out in sweats when we played with the edge of anything. So, blame it on heredity. We often do; maybe too often.
All right; so, truth be told, I’m a little conservative. I’m an observer. And it seems this blog thing caught on and we’ve actually found a meaningful purpose for it (I’m a master of the obvious.).
That’s good. I’m glad. Pop Rocks were cool until one too many of the less advanced decided to over indulge. We’ve learned the boundaries and have outgrown the excitement of Pop Rocks, and I’m sure this blog thing will follow the human pattern as well. It’s the way of the world. It’s the way of technology and the web. But, for now, we’ll have fun with it. I’m in!
Quickly, before I loose your attention with my rambling, my synopsis on blogs, twitter, social media outlets, and the long list of faddish technology toys: No doubt, these things have application and purpose, at least for a time to some measurable degree; and they hold important places along the journey of our technology pathway as we plow through all this uncharted territory. These things should be explored and cultivated and stretched and adopted. It’s all a part of discovery and advancement; and that’s what creates the excitement generated by these things – even to the ungeekable among us – it becomes more than a toy; these things invade our life and affects our lifestyles in ways unpredictable. And without question there is money to be made in toyland – so, for all those good reasons, by all means good friends, blog on!
