Blogging to Myself
Whenever I come across something interesting on the web, I try to capture it and remember it. The obvious way to remember a site is to bookmark it. But bookmarks get out of hand easily and you can't annotate them. So I've taken to sending links, copying bits of text and jotting down thoughts in an email to a Gmail account where I can label them and easily search them whenever I need to. This idea comes from
"How to use Gmail as your second brain".
Then I realized that what I was doing was blogging to myself. So, I thought, what the hell, why not blog for real. Send it out into the world and see what happens. It might be fun.
Herewith, my blog.
