Tom’s Garage

I followed a link from Ross’ Blog which led to some_yun_guy describing his “Eureka!” feeling with RSS and Blogs. So I got to thinking, “What is a blog?”.

Oh I know, it is short for ‘Weblog’, a journal or sorts. But I see it as more, or less, something, uhhh, else. I think “Blog” is short for “Back Log”. Like the backlog of data my brain is dealing with right now. If I dump it, my brain can continue to function at a reasonable speed. Without dumping, without blogging, I’m in perpetual swap and we all know it is much easier to read from RAM than it is from disk. So blog away – stop swapping. Dump your BackLOG for future reference (share it or don’t) and move on. And for goodness’ sake, use Blogware to do it all!
