Look at what I have to say, and look NOW, not later. But that's another subject. So now, I don't clutter up people's inbox with crap, and they can look at what I think is interesting when the mood strikes them, or not. And they don't have to feel guilty if they don't. That's why I do it.
People are social.
They have the need to share. A weblog is a wacky place where I can take a taboo subject like porn and discuss it . It had become a royal pain in the butt to be putting them into the database of websites only to have to remember to take them out when the URLs no longer worked. Plus, it allowed me to be more irreverant about certain ideas than I could be in the formal web index. I can't see a weblog, however, as ever being my primary site.
