About Blogging
I go through highs and lows when it comes to blogging. When I first started i wrote all of the time but it was all a bunch of useless meaningless mindless information that no one cared to read.
Then I stopped, switched back and forth from blogger to wordpress several times, and now I am back at it full time. I feel that through my journey I have discovered a lot of things.
Lately I have been getting deeper into the blogging world and actually READING more blogs then writing. It is actually a very good thing. I feel that blogging is more than just senselessly spewing your thoughts into the world, there is a whole community aspect to it.
I dont know if you have heard of the term blogosphere. It basically refers to a collection of similar blogs that have the same topic. For example a few blogs about cooking would go under the cooking blogosphere, and so on.
I am kind of sad because I have absolutely no idea what my blog would go under. I write about politics sometimes, but have way better things to do than be a pundit 24/7. I write about relationships all the time but do not desire to be the next Dr. Phil. I write about news sometimes but do not want to be a news digester. I just feel like my blog is full of random crap and has no sense of direction.
Is that a good thing or a bad thing? Maybe I need a mission statement or something for this blog Who knows.
Anyway, in the mean time I just wanted to point out that I have really enjoyed reading a lot of great blog lately. Keeps me entertained and inspires me to contribute to the blogging world. (Everyone in my blogroll has an awesome blog)
I have three followers now (including myself. :) It makes me happy. I will give a hug to everyone who follows me.

“An absolute bare minimum of interactivity”
I mentioned Atari’s Pong recently, a game often considered to be the first videogame ever. It wasn’t, and as a matter of fact, it was a clone of one of the games from the first home console Magnavox Odyssey, released earlier in 1972: This is a 34-minute vi...

FDR has always been one of my favorite presidents, second maybe to Lincoln. Both were men the establishment assumed were one of them until, to their horror, they governed like they weren't. Both could trash the opposition in one breath and take the moral h...
