I started this blog about a year ago. I made a couple of posts and published one of them and not much else. I had created it on the wordpress.com site as a free blog. It has done what most aspiring bloggers have done. Nothing.
The past couple of weeks got me thinking of several projects that I’d like to do, especially with my kids. I wanted a way to document things so we could look back on them as our future selves. This seemed like a decent way to do that. I got a real domain name and I’m hosted with a hosting company now. My original plan was to host it at home, but I really didn’t want the extra chores of network and application security on top of handling content.
I’m assuming blogging will be long gone by the time my kids are adults, but who knows? The last five years has seen many blogs fold up or dry up in favor of the house that Zuck built. I’m guilty of that. I left my first blog after a few posts in favor of spewing forth rhetoric on that other platform. We will see how it goes.
