Partly inspired by this blog post, I am going to attempt to write a little more on this personal web space. These notes could be about hiking or they could be about how I'm realizing that I really need to vacuum this carpet. Anything really. This is something I haven't done since the late 1990s and early 2000s in the midst of the blogging boom.
Will anyone read this stuff? No idea. It's ok if they do and it's ok if they don't. Will it be any good? Dunno. Will it be a regular habit? Knowing me, probably not, but who knows. I'm not putting pressure on myself to do anything but jot down occasional thoughts.
All I know is that whatever I write here will be my own, in my own space, and completely free from the bloated, advertising-based, algorithmic nonsense that the modern web has become. For those old enough to remember the early days of this medium, this is how we used to make stuff online and I think it's important to keep that spirit alive.
