Why I don't like blogs

I like conversation. Interactive between people existing here and now. Thoughts that exist here and now. Blogs are too much of a history for me. What is in the blog is what I thought when I wrote it, not what I think now.

Blogs in themselves are far from interactive; more like shouting in the dark. But maybe the writing itself is cathartic.

I actually prefer email, but lots of people use email differently than I do, so it may become uncomfortable, more like grabbing lapels and shouting in their ear.

So here I am trying a blog again. We'll see how it goes.
