I've never blogged. I have considered it rather negatively and have found it hard to rationalize value behind the current fad. Not everyone is a writer yet it amazes me how many aspire to be in the blogspace. I also have a tendency of getting carried away in my own written style, going down tangential avenues and straying from a single theme - much as I do when talking or writing within a forum post. I know my style - and I know how much time I "waste" writing about something that may or may not be "really important". And that knowledge does lend itself to tempering what could be endless ramblings and I do TRY in forum posting to keep myself short and to the point.
Nevertheless, I'll see how it goes. I created a blogspace last night and spent a little time early this morning writing up a little history of my current project. In the next few days (though, not today or this weekend due to my leaving shortly, going to visit my son and his family). So, if you've a mind to, you may monitor my progress as I post what I've done and will be doing in the next few days, weeks, or months...
