This blog dates back more than 4 years. It's among the longes experiments I've ever had and feel quite fond of it.
However, I realized today I'm not going back to it as often as I used to.
Most of the time (even now), my interface to this blog is that of ecto, and once I submit the post it's almost forgotten, as I seldom go and browse the blog itself.
I remember a time not so long ago when it was my main tool in organizing my experiences. What changed? Well, the answer is not so difficult, and is at least :
. there used to be a wiki, that is no more.
. there used to be more "tools" here, such as the calendar, that now are spread on different platforms (google calendar and friends)
. I was writing more personal stuff or, to say the truth, the same stuff from a more personal cut, and with much less squelch
Now, if the first two are syntomatic of less and less time spent on this platform, as more and more time was required to explore the new kids on the block, the third point is crucial.
Especially considering how useful I always found the habit of keeping diary.
And there's no reason why this shouldn't be the place to keep on storing those shards of memory (yes the Italian one was supposed to serve that purpose, but that's another problem: I found i cannot split my personality between the two).
Sorry for periodically going back to this kind of posts, but for me is actually useful to record this kind of iterations.
