Grand Reopening!

[channonyarrow]

As I noted in my other blog, I have given up on the idea of using Blogger to maintain a journal. Why I even have a journal, I couldn't say. Nonetheless, I do.

Now if only I had a life to keep in it.

One thing I have noticed is that I have censored myself a lot more than I do in the Blogger blog - there I rattled on about nothing of importance to anyone, but here I feel like I actually have to say something. Which is ironic, as part of the reason I switched to LJ (admittedly a small part) was the idea of friends-lock.

So I suppose I shall return when I have something to say. Hopefully that shall be soon.

Hello. This will certainly make my life easier - I found it hard to remember that I had to go somewhere else to read your blog.

Gaah!

Another soul lost to the LJ hegemony.

Pft! I'm secretly waiting for the next generation of really cutting edge markup langs to come along. I'm bored with HTML...it's so...shoddy. And XML...common, my dear, simply common.

WHO was bitching about Blogger the other day? Oh, wait, you.

Anyway, this way at least I will update since I'm already always here.

Dammit, you should be CREATING the next-gen markup/content language. Don't give me this "I am no geek" bullshit; it just doesn't wash, matey ;o>

I was bitching about their lack of XML feed, but they finally got their googled asses in gear and provided one, so I am happy now.

I intend investigating an SMS-to-blog thingy. I have: 1] a spare mobile 2] a broadband connection 3] a spare PC twiddling its umm PCI bus lines and 4] sufficient boredom with programming at work to sit down at home and hack something out.

That would be a neat geek trick...
