I know I know I know

21Dec05

It’s been a while, hasn’t it? One of my New Year’s affirmations and promises to myself are to be more diligent in spending time updating my blog. I dont know how many of you have offline blogging tools, but I’ll tell you the only thing they accomplish is to help one procrastinate in updating a post. And, when one has procrastinated long enough to actually make several revisions, check and then double check the contents of the post… the actual material is old hat. No one wants to read about my idea to create a search engine based on something I like to call “PageRank”… nor does anyone care about the one I had where I could create a social bookmarks manager based on a folksonomy….

I think its pretty easy to find the problem here. Heck, the title of this blog is called YakShaving– which if you’ll remember from before is when people like me who have situational ADD can’t decide what to do so they just do it all at the same time.

mark my words: You’re going to need to set up an RSS feed to see all the content flying out of here!

    Tell me about it. I’ve got an ever growing to-do list of stuff to write about stored in Backpack (some of which are several months old) and a bunch of half finished entries written in OneNote. Also, I think I need something better than Sage for RSS since like a jerk I hadn’t even realized that you’d been posting more.

    Yeah, I wonder if they have a OneNote –> MT blog plugin or something? Because between OneNote and w.bloggar and MT’s saved entries feature, it can get pretty crazy. I have entries all over the place, sometimes I don’t even know about them until I find them months later and they’re completely irrelevant! Although… maybe that’s just a personal problem I should address… :)
