We Need More Than 140 Characters

This blog served as my online home for several years. After a few years using Pyra.com and then Blogger I realised that what I wanted in a website could be best served by a blogging system. I found Wordpress in August 2004 and have used it ever since.

In the last couple of years I have been more interested in building websites using Wordpress than in writing the content. Nowadays most of the stuff I write is jammed into 140 character Tweets or slightly longer Facebook status updates. It’s short, it’s disconnected and it’s lost amongst people who want me to join a mob, buy a farm or go to a marketting seminar.

I’m starting to become a little disatisfied with that as both of these fine platforms are overrun with marketers and people who want me to buy a farm or join a mob.

So where to from here?

I’m going to write again. I’m going to start crafting again. Make my own connections again. And take back my interwebs.
