Looking over my Google Analytics visitor stats, it’s pretty obvious what visitors to this blog are interested in, and that is technical stuff. The articles and how-tos on packaging, scripting, technical procedures, and so on are what are out-performing the traffic numbers for all other topics. If I were only interested in stats, I’d drop the hair-brained stuff and focus on becoming a tech-manual spewing machine. But I’m not. I would like to entertain and amuse for a second or two, but I’m not a writer, comedian or psychologist.
The issue is this: I work with technology all day, every day. I’m immersed in it. Many varieties of it. At work. At home. So much that I myself cannot believe what I get myself into. Just describing what I do over a given week to someone else makes me cringe at the thought that I’m just making shit up. But I’m not. Guilt, I suppose. Over what, I don’t know. But still, I could dry up and go techie from here on out and work on pushing my numbers higher and thump my chest in glory. Who ****ing cares. When I die it won’t matter. What does matter is that I enjoy dumping my thoughts here, and I indeed have random thoughts. Because I have a random brain that tries to multi-task way too much and way too often. Rarely can I sit and think about one thing. In fact, while typing this I’m thinking about the book I’m reading and where I stopped to do this, and when I’ll stop this to do that. This is getting really confusing.
Where was I? Oh yeah: I’m going to keep blabbering senselessly and sensefully in a back-and-forth manner. At least for as long as I feel like it. Even if my stats show a bounce rate of 87% and average time on site of 1-2 seconds. Whatever. That’s long enough. Stay tuned…
