21st July 2010: A Personal Post
So, I've decided to write a little more.  It's more of a personal entry rather than a work entry.  I'm trying to get back into the swing of blogging.  And it's a lot more work than it appears to be!  There is the tagging of posts, the PR work, the writing of the post itself, the pinging the blog.  Yes, I know some of this work I bring on myself, but I don't care.  As I've said before, I'd rather be in complete control of the platform I write on that hand over control to someone else for ease of use.

But then there are other things which I do which make the process easier!  For example my laptop has a 3G socket built right into it, meaning no dongle.  Plus it has built in wifi, so I can use it anywhere.  So I have the choice to blog anywhere I want.  And I sincerely think that I wouldn't be able to do much of this on an iPad.

Which brings me to my next point.  I am sick of people who know I am a technology geek asking "Are you going to be getting an iPad?"  NO!  They are horrible devices!  Come on.  Seriously?  No USB sockets?  No SD sockets?  Not even a Micro SD socket?  I get why, to keep it thin.  But they could have included a micro SD socket.  I don't understand why. 

The other thing that people ask me a lot of the time is "Can I have your blog address?"  Sometimes I give it to them, but the thing is, the same people at work who got me into trouble for the last blog, ask me for the address.  Why would I ever give them the address? 

So, that's it for this somewhat rambling post.  No reason for it, but hey, I just felt I needed to get some stuff off my chest!
