Starting Out

I've heard that if you can't reasonably create the first 10 posts, you shouldn't undertake the blog adventure ride. You see creativity is a well that sometimes runs deep, but more often shallow. And there's enough of the 200million + blogs out there that are stale, infrequently attended to, and read by the bored and those that enjoy Google's "feeling lucky?" button.

The purpose of this blog is to capture key ideas and thoughts, craft words around them and publish them. The exercise is one of spewing - not top of mind observations though occasionally it'll dip to that. Rather spewing in this sense means to put down in some place semi-permanent the interesting ideas, concepts and experiences that occur.

The output will be mundane and fascinating all at once. And it depends upon your perspective which you view it as. That - for what it's worth - is something I intend on challenging, as we're all a little too set in our ways in a perception sense. There's nothing like seeing the world, or a given experience through another set of eyes to open our own.

So, as we embark on this together, I wanted to say congratulations for you've been promoted to the position of critic. There's few things you can do that will lose this chair, and likewise, there's only a few things you can do right to be promoted from it, and into the debate.
