In many ways I’m pleased that blogs have turned into what they are today. They are a technology that fills the same hole that ‘The Monthly Neil’ (or whatever I called it all those years ago) was intended to fill. They provide a passive way for readers to keep in touch with people. And an easy way to publish observations, thoughts, ideas and feelings in an undirected way.
“And in every bar there was a super star
With a seven year itch
There were fifteen million fingers
Learning how to play”
Voices. So many voices. But nothing to say. Everything has been said before. My writings here are not focused (or indeed original) enough to be of interest to anyone but the people who know me. And I don’t really have the kind of time it would take to make a single topic blog dynamic enough to be worthwhile. Besides, whatever the topic, there are already hundreds of people talking about it already.
So what? I don’t know. Its just that something feels wrong. Like theres something I’m missing.
