For some reason, I haven’t felt like sharing much in these parts for a while. Actually, for some reasons:
- Lack of time.
- Loss of desire to communicate in English, to an English-speaking audience.
- Loss of interest in what is going on in the US and the fate thereof (have a nice life, America).
- Twitter.
Like most people, I didn’t see the point of Twitter at first. I followed a lot of people, and was thoroughly unimpressed.
Then, 2 things happened: 1, I realised it could complement, if not replace, an RSS reader and 2, I started following interesting people. Mostly frogs, mostly journalists and activists of different stripes. Some of them even followed me back. So despite the 140 character limit, I’ve enjoyed exchanging bite-sized morsels of info and ideas and impressions with other tweeters.
And the Geeks allow me to express my creativity (nearly) every week.
I’ve also been investigating other online venues. Facebook: yuck. Friendfeed: double yuck. Posterous: great potential.
Furthermore, I’ve been working on a fairly major new Web project (code name « virus ») that is starting to take shape and which I hope to unveil in the not too distant future.
As for sknoblog, I don’t know if it’ll find a new life and/or purpose (in relation to said new project or otherwise).
