(to be sung like the 2/3rds the chorus of “do your ears hang low“)

how do I post from my phone,
how do I post from email,
how do I include fresh photos
and run “mylife -tail”

Booting Up

December 24, 2008 ·

For a few years I wrote letters to myself on my birthday.  Hello, here’s what was happening to me.  I did this on my public website, since that’s where I addressed myself most other days of the year.

Now it’s been a few years since I’ve done that kind of writing.  I foreswore deeply personal exploration for internet publics so I could instead get to know a local individual better.  That worked out quite well.  My days are hugely exciting, exhilarating, charged with companionship and focus.

Online personal record keeping has become epically widespread and popular.  There are so many ways to chronicle your time on Earth using the internet.  I’ve put this page together to pull together a few of the information streams emanating from my life into a single place. Plus, I look forward to an empty text box, that I might upload parts of my brain - there are some things I would occasionally like to remember with my fingers!
