you might have already noticed the scanty posts… and wondering if this wee blog still has some life. in theory, it does. in reality, its activities have been undermined by life’s other preoccupations — work, chores, cooking, errands, distractions, etc.

there are, in truth, a few annoyances about blogging which some of you might be familiar with, e.g. the actual cumbersome webspace limitations of most ‘free’ blog accounts and i have yet figured out how best to integrate all of the different media options — flickr, picassa, vimeo, etc. etc. etc. — and the archival aspects are not straightforward either; you ideally want everything to be in one and the same place.

moreover, transferring from one blogging platform to another also messes up the formatting of the existing posts (many of which i have yet rectified — since it needs to be sieved and manually fixed). all in all a pain and not something i have time to deal with at present. and admittedly, i have been getting more out from the spontaneous gratification of ‘real’, interactive social exchanges in FB-land… sad but true. it probably is an indication that the contents of this blog needs to have a different focus…

i don’t intend to give up blogging though… rather, i am still trying to figure out how best to use it for my creativity, or my way of sharing my adventures, thoughts, and a desire to communicate.

meanwhile… happy fossicking through the archives… (and if you spot any silly formatting faux pas and typos please please alert moi!).
