As you may or may not have noticed, I’ve stepped off of this blog recently. As much as I like the idea that anything and everything I could think of to post is endlessly fascinating to the public… this is probably not all that accurate.
So, I took some time off from hucking unrelated thoughts into the void of the blogosphere. But scrolling through what little I have put on here, the majority of which is made up of rando kitschy internet finds, I realized that my favorite way to use the internet is as a kind of archive. Here’s where it’s time to let my geek flag fly: the fact that documents, information, videos, and music that you would have had to either dig up in a media library or behind a case of Bud in your uncle’s basement are now immediately available is pretty amazing, and still a total novelty to me.
