so i stumbled upon a few cool things lately- orkut, del.icio.us, yulblog, and the mini-blog. i’m not going to run down the first two because a) as much as i’d like to, i don’t live in brazil and can’t speak portuguese, and b)i’m years too late on this one and you’ve probably all been there and done that already. some things i just can’t get into right away, and delicious was on of them. useful, kinda neat actually, but whatever.
the main topics of discussion for today’s lecture are yulblog and another (mini)blog i found. firstly, why i like yulblog is because it’s a regularly updated stream of random tidbits of lives that are lived close to mine. it’s kind of interesting to read miscellaneous posts and realize that i may have actually run into one of these people today and not even known it. (literally, i almost hit a lot of people/cars on my daily bike rides to school. i blame it on the video games as a kid.)
in reading one of the blogs, i came across the miniblog, which you may or may not have seen already. i think this is neat because it’s so random and has almost no possible context. so, similarly to why i find random blogs interesting, mini randomness is even more interesting because there is no context to the post, no follow-up, no explanation, no nothing. almost no point.
it might be something i’d incorporate here. i think that having only tiny posts to write is less daunting than writing almost a full page.
just thought i’d share.
p.s.- in case anyone’s wondering; yes i am only writing this as a way to procrastinate some more. my homework is really annoying.
