December 2003 Archives

I generally try not to use the blog as a diary, so there are relatively few occasions when I've talked about important happenings in my own life. I think some people have assumed in the past that I might be doing this out of concern for anonymity, but the actual reason behind it is simple -- I don't find the regular events in my life all that interesting to write about, and I'm sure they're even less interesting to read. So while I've written a lot in the past about random observations on life or the Web, you'll see comparatively few mentions of life in the office, or how work was going, or the people I spent my time with. Because -- let's face it -- who the hell cares. The Web is not the place for such trivial gossip, that's what genuine honest-to-god real-world conversation is for.

Anyway, having read all that you can now completely disregard it, because this entry is full of all that kind of stuff.
