Ooops. Sorry. And I have a question.
I don’t know whether or not I’ve mentioned this before, but I have a Sony Reader and it’s awesome. The e-ink stuff is great, so easy on the eyes (literally, like actual paper because it’s actually ink, it’s just not dry and permanent), and there’s enough product for it to be sufficient. I’m not a big reader, but I like writing a fair amount, and certain feeds can be downloaded to the device as well. Anyway.
I never did write about that dynamism product that I was to talk about, and now, it’s been so long that I’ve since forgotten about whatever it was. So, sorry… though I have no idea to whom I’m apologizing… I think about three people occasionally look at this blog, and because I don’t post enough, they’re likely to never come back. I know that that’s my fault. So here’s the thing.
I kinda need help with this. Yes, I don’t ask for help that much, and I guess I don’t “need help,” but I’d like some. I’d like someone else to fill in certain blanks, post reviews on electronics and software, or at least help me make this site a resource for it.
The other idea that I had was turning this site into something about gaming, or changing it entirely. I just don’t have enough steam to write about technology on a frequent basis. I thought that I did, I thought I would, because on bradtastic I used to post entries on software and random tidbits on this or that, and no one cared there. But that was different than no one seeing it, that’s the case here; no one comes to this site because there aren’t enough posts, but because the site is specifically aimed at people interested in tech stuff, it’s not a problem. But it was at my homesite, because the people who went to that site (a greater number than the amount of people coming to this site… like, five) didn’t care at all about tech. So I needed to separate the posts.
It’s just that in doing so, I split myself, creating some sort of mental chasm reducing the amount of overall content that I’ve produced in general by splitting my own brain’s material in two not-so-neat and tidy halves. If I had some help on the other hand, I would be compelled to post more… or if I changed the site to my other site idea, well, one of five.
Basically, I just like writing. No, I love writing. And it doesn’t even matter to me anymore what I write about, I just like putting words out there. I get that I’m risking the inundation of my potential “audience” with too much content, and… well, you know. I just answered my own question. I think I will go with the other site, and not make this one about gaming or anything else other than what’s intended.
So I have a new idea: if you have something that you’d like an opinion on, let me know what it is, I’ll look into it and then post my thoughts about it. And people pay good money to hear what I think, so you’d be getting a pretty cool freebie. Anyway. I have so much other crap to write now…
So I found something new, too, just now. The ASUS Eee PC is a UMPC with an 8GB solid-state HDD… for $500! It’s the new toy that I want, for my car and for travel, for field reports, notes… there’s a ton of crap that I come up with and then end up forgetting because I don’t have something around to put it down permanently. It’s generally obscure additions for my book or a site, or a product that I heard about, the name of a cool new band or something… although short things I end up inputting into the iPhone so it’s less of an issue—I’m rambling. Check out that notebook, let me know what you think.
