part of the turn

It a pretty simple one really. I’ve been trying to blog for the last six months or so but the truth is this; I don’t think I really have much to say at all. I don’t know why that is. I like to talk about stuff. I even like to write, but for some reason I don’t really like to blog.

And well were are on the topic of realizations, I also think that I managed to design one of the most horribly unattractive and busy blogs on the entire internet. I’d say I feel victim to the “I think feature and that feature is cool, so I’ll toss them ALL in” trap.

Here’s the other really weird thing. I don’t really want to stop having this blog. I like the idea of having a blog and I haven’t given up on the idea of blogging at some point. Maybe even some point soon?

Well I have been trying to figure this whole thing out I have also created a profile on Facebook, Myspace and Virb. Here’s my quick thought on all three.

Facebook: really great community features. Simple. Attractive (in a Web 2.0 kind of way).
Myspace: don’t get me started. I don’t know much but this site make me feel weird every-time I log on. Ugly. Slow. Not bad for finding new music though.
Virb: this one is a bit of an enigma. You can certainly create really cool profiles and some people have but I think that as more people sign up, you’ll start to see a lot of really ugly Myspace-esque profiles start to show up. The community features seem pretty solid, but there needs to be more people online to really get a feel for it.

Verdict: For now, Facebook. Ask me again in a few months and Virb may have stolen my digital heart
And for everyone who cares… one last look at my old blog:

Long live the simple life!
