I’ve tried writing several email newsletters down the years. Every time I lost interest immediately.

For me there’s just something inherently uninteresting and unexciting about newsletters. They reek of promotion and desperation.

Blogs are a digital living room where I can share my ideas and thoughts with whoever drops by.

And if I’m writing on the web, I want to write on the web. With things like blogrolls and reblogs, trackbacks and pingbacks, atom feeds and webmentions, via’s and hat tips.

Blogs will always be my emotional and technological home.
