Blog Status Update

Thursday, July 22nd, 2010

It’s getting harder and harder to even care about this blog.  Despite my efforts to get people to read it, no one does (over the past month, I have had a grand total of 57 views).  Needless to say, that makes it hard to even bother planning and writing a post.  And of course, not writing frequently makes people even less likely to visit.  It’s a evil cycle.  Add to this the fact that I continue to struggle on Twitter, and it’s enough to make me realize I need a whole new approach to this social media thing.

Thing is, I have no idea what that will be.  If I knew how to do it, I surely would.  I’d be willing to invest time and money into creating a site, but without a clear idea of how that site fits in, it is hard to throw much at it.  I honestly believe I have something to add but the results have not exactly borne that out.  So I guess it’s a matter of sitting down and building something anyway.  It’s really the only thing I can do.

Anyway, the point of this post is to tell the scant few who visit that I am not sure how this moves forward.  I will say this – if you happen to come across this site and like what you read below, please let me know at lehman.brian@gmail.com.  I would be very interested in contributing to other sites, even if only on a very occasional basis.  I want to learn to write, debate, and explain things better, and I feel like this blog has at least done that for me.  In the meantime, I will continue to talk to my small audience on Twitter (BrainLemon).

Whatever I do this will be the place it is located, or if it is elsewhere this will be the place to find a link to it.  I’m sure I will continue to write when the mood hits just because I like doing so!

Categories and Persistent Content

Tuesday, March 4th, 2008

I’m hoping to make this more than just a simple blog, more like a site where I can include other content.  Specifically, I’d like to put together some persistent content detailing my opinions on certain subjects and information I pick up.  This content will have its own category label, Papers.  Also, I’ve created a distinction between politics and non-politics for anyone who is sick of it.  Posts not relating to politics will be marked with category Other Things.  Stay tuned for more on what will hopefully, finally, be the actual blog I’ve been wanting to have for a while.

Blog Restart

Friday, February 22nd, 2008

Thus begins, at lost last, the restart of my blog I’ve been desiring for months.  The original goal was to develop a full-blown personal website, hosted on my own, including my own custom-designed blog.  This goal still remains, however since it seems it will be quite a while before I create that, in the meantime I’m revitalizing this blog (which I’m paying for anyway).  This time I’m going to promote the thing and try to actually get some readers!
