Pixels to paper

Posted by Rob March 13, 2009, under South Africa | No Comments |
One of the problems with having a blog is finding content. Some people seem to have a knack for it and some don't. I fit into the latter category rather than the former. It seems that every day I think of at least twenty things I should or could blog about and yet when it comes time to put pixels to paper I come up completely blank. That's really the sticking point for me I think - not so much...

A lighter blog: Zombie typing

Posted by Rob March 13, 2009, under South Africa | 3 Comments |
Tonight I've decided to go for a blog that falls on the lighter side of life. Today a friend introduced me to one of the more interesting typing tutors I've seen so far. Generally speaking, Typing Tutors are wishy-washy namby-pamby little games that force you to pop bubbles, save dogs and occasionally fight off sharks by spelling words correctly. Who on earth wants that? Certainly not me. For...

We blog because we care

Posted by Rob March 11, 2009, under Nothing Much | No Comments |
Yesterday, I revealed that blogging is all about the ego. That's still true but there's more to it than that. We also blog because we care. In some ways we blog more because we care than anything else. We care what other people say about us, what other people think and especially what impact we can have on the world. I hope he doesn't mind my using him as an example but a very good blog, 6000...

It’s all about the Ego baby.

Don't fool yourself. You blog because you have a giant ego. There is no other reason. I know you sit there writing your posts about how many sausages your new puppy ate and say things like "If anyone reads this" or "My six or seven fans" but what you're really thinking is "This blog is awesome, I may win a prize." There are a load of people who embrace this philosophy and I firmly believe we all...

I did promise

It's 11:22 by my time and I'm squeezing a blog into the end of this very hectic day. Today everything that could conceivably have gone wrong has. Coming in to work this morning I discovered that my network was down. Why? Because someone had decided now was a good time to come change the electrical points for our labs. Of course that means that they shut down the whole damned lot of things...
