200
I started writing this blog in March 2003. If Usenet posts count for anything, I’ve been writing something online since the early 80’s. No stranger to online expression …
But sticking to JavaJoint for a sec, this is the 200th post. I think I’ll do 200 more.
Some personal favorites, somewhat grouped:
Blogging / Context:
Context, Blogs, and Chameleons - where I compare the process of writing a blog to other online forms that have more focus. Something else along the same lines is Nostalgic for Usenet, looking for UseWeb - and sometimes I’ll revisit the theme, such as when I went to NY Bloggers talk: NYC Bloggers make me think of future.
ThereThen Addressing & FlexiPhoto:
There are a number of posts where I mention my ThereThen addressing idea (urls that express time and space). One entry point is: ThereThen: How Important Is Altitude? FlexiPhoto is my web-based photo db, and in my grand plans, I will tie it together with ThereThen addressing. I did implement the notion of how photo collections span time
Looking Back:
I sometimes get nostalgic, such as An Echo or I’ll think of old music such as Camper Van Beethoven.
But also love random memories, such as Snow Kidding.
New York:
Thoughts of my New York experiment started taking form around August, 2003, when I wrote: Big Apple Plans. My “do I think I want to live in New York” experiment started, and this was one of my first impressions. I do talk about the weather sometimes: Brr York City and Winter Splinter.
Geeky:
I pine for super geeky gizmos - but then I’ll balance it out with a someday tech vacation - sometimes I want a different sort of tech, such as my Stratocaster.
There’s much else I could touch on, such as a constant desire to travel, or fave books or movies. I’ll do my best to keep branching out with these entries.
