This is the third attempt at writing something this morning… the first one got derailed by a shiny object… the second got derailed by a Google search on how to mount and extract apk files from a Android img file.
Anywhoo it’s December which means it’s almost chilly, it also means that it’s been 10 years since I started writing in what would become this blog. It’s kind of interesting to me on multiple levels on how this whole thing evolved. It started with a version of Front Page or MS Word that I would upload to Geo-cities. From there it evolved into a blogger address (which really marked the first part of normal web routine to move completely to the internet) and the blogger address evolved into this after I became unhappy with how Google was ignoring blog-spot.
I haven’t logged into blog-spot in forever I wonder if it’s any better?

Hmmmm mostly the same, though it does have ad-sense and Google analytic integration now so that’s kinda cool. To bad I do this as a hobby and not a living.
I miss the “old web” long form communication of blogs (for those of us who still do the personal blog thing). Almost all of the social media sites have devolved into the shiny objects websites… pretty soon it’s going to be very little social and alot of very directed advertising. At the same time thought starting to see parity between desktop web applications and mobile applications is very cool. I knew the world was changing when I loaded the WordPress App for Android and I it was basically a full feature client on a 3.7 inch screen.
So here is to another 10 years of blogging… who knows what the world will bring.
I’m sure it will be something wonderful
