How does one begin blogging? Where does one get the idea "hey, I want to share my thoughts, my life, with all that is the internet"?
The thought was planted in my mind over a year ago thanks to Facebook and one of my friends from university. I had noticed that she had a blog and when I visited it, I was intrigued. She was sharing her thoughts, her perspective and her experiences. It was interesting.
Could I do the same? Do I have something to say? Do I have something to share? I let the thoughts roll around.
Then one afternoon while perusing a cool website I came across an article, Establish and Mintain Your Online Identity. Now, I'm not going to run out and buy a domain name... there is just way too much risk of people using any information I supply against me. I don't need to suffer through an Identity Theft experience. The article did mention though, to use your purchased domain name as a portal to a personal blog. There was that word again... blog. Hmmmm? The thoughts started buzzing again.
Last night as I was watching the baseball game (Jays have so much potential. Why can't they get their shite together?), I happened to come across another blog of an artist talking about is work. I am a big fan of sculpture, I collect a fair share of them, enough to drive my wife crazy, and this artist's blog put his work, his process, his thoughts out there for all to share. Way cool!
Sports? Blogs are all over the place for fans to express their thoughts. One of my favourites is Razzball. Dude is hilarious. Can I do this?
I have a ton of opinions on just about any topic, ask my wife.
I am always right... again, ask my wife.
Maybe I do have something to say afterall. Well it starts today I don't know how long I will keep it up...if it will sustain my interest, but this will be the blog about my life, my story... Chasing my Tale.
Cheers.
