It’s been almost two years since I’m writing things on the blog (i guess)… I started it as a learning experience, to get to know what blogging is, how it feels and to learn how people design their blogs. To me, being a web designer-developer, it seemed the right thing to do. So, I did it and felt very good doing it. It was “Fun”. However, since last few months, when I look at my blogging frequency and content, things don’t look right. It’s as if I’ve lost the sheer motivation that drove me to write any blatant stuff on this blog in the first place.

The reason behind this is probably because I wanted to make it better, and didn’t quite realize the correct path to achieve it. It’s every bloggers dream to get more viewers, readers to their blog. To establish a “communicative” relation to the society through their blog in their very own way. I am not an exception. I wanted more viewers, so, I thought I should do some study around it, read some good articles about blogging and try to improve myself a bit. So, I did…

Articles, people around the web and probably everyone else who knows blogging emphasize on content quality. To create quality content, one should actually try to identify the type of content that the blog is supposed to serve. This is where I fell. It was a hands down pants up failure. The blog had(and still has) a lot of random stuff such as cat pictures, images of a couple of computer keyboards, some more cats, my ramblings and mumblings about the movies that I liked or disliked and some of computer, flex and programming stuff as well… But, when I tried to categorize my blog, i just ended up confusing myself terribly. Often happened so, that whenever I thought of posting something on the blog, I restricted myself thinking whether it’d suit the flavor that I want my blog to belong to. Most of the times, the thoughts were ended as discarded drafts.

Now that I think of it, I never really wanted my blog to belong to a particular flavor. I wanted it to reflect a bit of myself from on the web. I wanted it to be a place to store my late night randomness, to dump my offline brainstorms, experiments, parties, fun events etc…. (and to show furry cat pictures). From this moment onwards (actually a few moments before this moment, and a probably a few more moments before ‘this’ particular moment) I have decided to not to restrict myself from posting any(ducking?)thing on the blog.

I want my old fun back !!!
