Why an online journal?

Posted on April 4, 2003 By Tom No Comments on Why an online journal?
Miscellaneous

I’ve kept several journals over the years. My most thorough was the journal I kept while in Europe one summer. I also kept detailed journals of at least part of our year in Arizona. Every now and then I pull those out, and I’m glad I kept detailed notes, but such documentation takes time. I don’t want the documentation of life to interfere with life itself. There’s the added twist of this being such a public forum, therefore…

  1. I’ve decided to update this journal sporadically, at best. Sometimes it will only have my taste in books or music at the moment.
  2. I won’t be posting any deep, dark secrets.  I may decide to run for public office some day.
  3. If you really want news and opinions, send me e-mail and ask for them.  Heck, send me e-mail anyway, unless you are a spammer.

We’ll see how long this exercise in self-indulgence lasts until I give it up.
