WTF

I'm a gadget head, but not a freaky gadget head; there's a lot of stuff that goes over my head. And when I go looking for information on something, a lot of times it's either way too technical, or just a quick list of features. So this blog is a collection of reviews, tips, and thoughts oriented towards the everyday user.

A year and a half on....

So, a little while, someone hit me up on the Intertubes asking for my Blogger domain.  They had a good reason: they would use it and it appeared as though I hadn't touched it in almost a year and a half.  And they were right.  I got an email today that appears to maybe back up their claim....

But, you know, I rather like the name - and while I'm not blogging with it - I keep meaning to do so.....

The problem is - keeping it going.  I've looked over the last several years, and it always starts the same.  A couple of very frantic weeks while I post a bunch of stuff, and then.... nothing.... for vast .... stretches of time.

This has been no exception.

And rather a lot has changed since the last post in September of 2009.

  • TOTALLY new kit, it seems - I'm now an Android owner and made the switch to using it (very nicely) as my main electronic gadget.  Which means the old PDA and phone and DMP are all Droid X.  And therefore a whole slew of new apps.  Though I also own and enjoy an iPad (original).  Oh, and the laptop is long since gone.
  • I'm looking at my N800 links and well ... I'm not even sure I can find my N800 any more.  
  • I've been playing with a lot of new stuff, too.  Booted up Chrome off of Hexxeh's builds awhile ago but surrendered the cute lil' laptop to the theater (which hasn't used it yet.)  A myDitto personal network storage device has been installed, along with a good cloud backup service.
  • We went in on a beach house in Delaware last year, so a lot of time has been spent down there - and more time will need to be spent as we redo the room.
  • And recently, I've started to train for a little sprint triathlon in early August.  And I've found myself the last couple of days really wanting to comment on it.  That should be good for about 8 weeks.
So, of course, here's another start.  And of course, Blogger has introduced all sorts of new templates that look pretty good, so I'll likely have to check that out as well....

And something occurs to me.  I spent a lot of time fretting about setting up two blogs - one more techy and one more generic me - and screw it.  Beth's blog is successful pursuing her many hobbies - food and baking and running and travel.  So.... mebbe I should just concentrate on one journal, tag the living beejeezus out of it, and let Blogger sort the damned thing out....

Here goes ... again....
