We are after all social animals - so the fact that myspace and similar communities keep growing, and that people want to comment on and discuss the simple issues like the weather, should come as no surprise.
Looking back and walking forward
So why the draught of postings - is there a simple reason or just a set of good excuses?
First and foremost is the fact that I haven't been good enough at taking the time to do what I intended with the blog in the first place; put a different spin on a subject, get some tangential and loosely related thoughts and questions up - in order to make the readers and myself think a little more about an event or a concept.
But it has also evolved to serve as a sort of digital locker - where I keep links I find to fun or interesting sites and products, as well as articles (mainly in Wired) that are 'recommended reading'.
On to the ambition going forward to the double-point (that would be 06-06-06 obviously, nothing like a bit of numerology to fill the days, especially considering how many changes and adjustments our calendar has overgone through the centuries - which should probably be the subject of an upcoming post: the randomness of facts);
Make the blog more like a column or newsletter - try to get on major post in every week (most likely Friday or over the weekend), and add in one or two "link posts" during the week with everything from funny quizzes to new launches.
I'll also try to pick up some of the first post - and revisit the themes, to see if my ideas and inspirations takes us somewhere different than they did back then.
So, until the next time (hopefully over the weekend): have a marvy day and enjoy 3-3-6
