Why I’m blogging
I just read a headline about the “Rise and Fall of the Blogosphere” and it made me pause for a minute. I guess the height of blogging has long passed us. So why am I starting to blog again? The true reason is this - my legacy. As I hit middle age, I guess I’m starting to think a little about what I’m going to leave behind in this world. What do I want my kids, grandchildren, great-grandchildren, and all of the artificial intelligent creatures to know about me? My grandma’s brother wrote an autobiography. It was maybe 100 pages and he didn’t publish it. He just wrote it all by hand, at least 2 copies. I read it many years ago and it was fascinating. I've thought about it over the years, and thought about how I hope that when I get older I write one for myself. I guess this is my way of doing that.
