however. please 😮‍💨 at me if i am only ever posting about computer or website. to lightly paraphrase something a friend pointed out… the real tragedy of october 1 is that a lot more of the people who i will be seeing online in this way will be… computer touchers. programmers. (although now that i say this: it would be interesting to do a little audit of my actual blogroll. because i can think of Several who are not this.)

I'm really happy to see a bunch of the less-technical people I followed on Cohost setting up blogs with Bear or Ghost or WordPress. It's been fun for me to set this site up as a playground for what could be possible as far as bringing the aspects of social media I value to the web, but truly one of the biggest virtues of social media sites is making it so so easy to get set up and start posting. At the same time, it's also one of its biggest downfalls, because it's the same thing that makes it so easy to get sucked into the quicksand of corporate lock-in.
