…so anyway, as I was saying…yeah, there’s a lot of old stuff around here.
Which brings me to wonder. Do people read old posts on blogs? I suppose only if they are good, right? Well, my writing has always been horrible, so no chance of that happening anytime soon, I guess.
The other thing I hate about having an old, old, old, blog is that many of the posts in it are not categorized. I take some time once every blue moon and go through them to categorize the many old unsorted posts, but then I find also that there are hundreds without titles!
See, back in the day (before things like Blogger.com, etc.), there was no such thing as comments, categories, even “posts” and “titles”. You just did it all yourself. About the time Blogger.com came out, there was a way for me to import posts from my journal (no one had called it a ‘blog’ – short for ‘weblog’, yet, until Blogger.com came along).
And even early Blogging sites/’tools did not have categories, comments, and sometimes post titles. Everyone got super-excited when Blogger.com came out with Draft saving and then it was like a huge milestone when they came out with the ability to change the date of a post.
Anyway, I guess my point of this whole post was, yes I have a great, old, dusty blog, full of wonder and fun. But it’s hard to enjoy because its antique-nes is making it hard to integrate into today’s systems.
