Making Philoking.com a bit more personal…

25 Jun 2008

I have gone through many changes with this blog, and one reason I don’t update it as much as I would like to is that I try to keep this thing a constant topic (or group of topics) that draw a particular type of user. Now, I love blogging, and I will continue to, but just like my wife, I find myself struggling with one thing. There are often blogs that I want to write, and should write, but I don’t because they aren’t quite appropriate to my blog.

I am pretty sure I will never be a professional blogger, and if I become one, then I will have made many more changes than this to get there, but as far as that goes, I am going to start using this blog a little more like a journal in addition to technology articles. Some of the things I would like to add are photo-a-day type blogs where I post cool photos I take and the story or inspiration behind them, stuff about music I am listening to or movies I have recently enjoyed and just general life stuff.

I won’t be on here whining about stuff or blabbing out personal information, that’s still not an appropriate use of my blog, but as I have so many friends I have made through this blog that follow it (and often ask why I don’t post as much) I will try to make it more active.

Sometimes writing long posts on technological topics takes time and it makes for a slow blog, so with that, I’ll pick up the pace a bit and start writing more about things that may or may not always be of interest to you.

I’ll be sure to organize my feeds in such a way where you can subscribe to just the tech articles if you want, if not, get ready, hopefully it will start as a trickle but end up as a flood of information that you might find interesting.
