Paul's Web Space 2.1

Politics, Culture, Technology

Stories about cool events I've attended, musings about social media and other technology, and commentary about people, issues, ideas, whatever. I've had a web site since 1994, at my own domain since 1997, and switched it to blog format in 2005. Now, in 2008, I've added labels, shuffled things around a bit and fixed some style and UI quirks - hence 2.1. Watch for more widgets and microformats....

What the world needs now is another new blog

You know that's not true. Why, then, do I think my musings are worthy of their own space on the web? Well, I have a home page that looks (and is) almost ten years old. People go there from time to time, and I am increasingly not exactly embarrassed, but not exactly proud either.

It is my intention, when this blog is sufficiently well developed, to make it my new home page. (I will keep a link to the old version, designed by good friend Ian Gillespie, because it looks nice - but it doesn't work any longer as a home page.)

The more recent inspiration for me to finally take this on is a challenge from EFF - their 15th anniversary Blog-a-thon for Freedom. My next post will be my entry into that contest.

Finally, I do have cool things to say, about technology, culture, freedom, music, and now, kids and education. Maybe you'll think I do too!
