Bill’s Back
A number of people† have asked me why I started blogging. There were a number of reasons, and its changed somewhat over time. Now its more of combination "creative" outlet and opportunity to ramble mentally. Lets face it, I like to tell stories and whether someone is reading them or not, this is a way for me to get them out of my head.
I came to the whole blogging thing about a year ago. It had been in a pile of things that I had lumped into the "why-would-you-bother" category, a category which embarrassingly included both podcasting and camera phones - which, for the record, are now two things I am not deeply addicted to. The thing that brought me around to blogging was reading a couple of bloggers who could a/ write b/ had something interesting to say.
Those two bloggers were Juan over at Boozhy and Scott from Bill in Exile. Boozhy is still going strong, but sadly Bill shut up shop in January this year.
