reBirth()
Posted by Stefan Camilleri on {2008.July.12}
/** This is the re-birth of my blog. Supposedly this would be the fifth or sixth time that I am creating a blog, so I am just curious as to how long this one will last! */
Reasons I’ve had a blog in the past are as follows {
- Livejournal.com :: the reason for this blog was simply because my then girlfriend had one and I wanted to experience what she felt when writing in her blog. This didn’t work and I ended up spamming my own blog with random quizzes and stuff :: Return -> False
- Greatestjournal.com :: also was born during my ‘blogging-girlfriend’ stint. I wanted to feel like I was ‘contributing’ to her blogging life, so I recommended that everyone (all friends etc…) move to this blog. Everyone – to my surprise – DID actually move to this blog, but I soon lost interest and I ended up spamming my own blog with random quizzes and stuff :: Return -> False
- Blogger.com :: I don’t totally recall why I even had this blog. It was probably more of a ‘tracking news’ blog than anything private about my life; as were supposedly the previous two. Likewise, a few months in, and I ended up spamming my own blog with random quizzes and stuff :: Return -> False
- WordPress.com :: this was possibly my most successful blog to date. I persistently tracked news and hand-picked interesting stuff. It was so successful, that once a journalist friend of mine even got prompted by one of my posts and published an article based on it via the public news. Then again, this blog was born whilst I was studying at university, which would account for why it lasted the longest. In the end, I ended up spamming my own blog with random quizzes and stuff :: Return -> False
- Livejournal.com :: back to livejournal.com it was. This time, I wanted an anonymous blog, where I would track things of interest that I learnt during the day and any targets that I had set for myself. Unfortunately, my ex figured out who I was based on my style of writing and general interests. Wow, kudos to her for knowing me so well! Ultimately though, I almost ended up spamming my own blog with random quizzes and stuff (but I didn’t :Þ) :: Return -> False
- This would be the sixth attempt. Hopefully this one will last. Over here I plan to track all my private projects and am keeping this blog specifically for development purposes. Eventually I’ll create my own blog and transfer everything to it, I have some cool ideas (at least I think they’re cool), though until now this will have to suffice :: Return -> Variant
}
…and well that is it!
