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 {

  1. 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
  2. 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
  3. 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
  4. 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
  5. 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
  6. 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!
