Dreaded “First Post”
Tuesday, October 25th, 2005
Hate is a strong word, but I loath the concept of a "first post". I read Slashdot a fair bit and everyone thinks they’r so cool when they make the illustrious "first post". Rah rah. And sure, this is my "first post" using a blogging client that’s integrated into a new "web browser" (Flock, which you really should checkout: http://www.flock.com/).
The term "web browser" should be used loosly here, as I consider Flock to be a "hybrid browser" combining the best of weblogging in the form of photos with flickr, blogging (several flavors) and a really advanced RSS feed and agregation system along with a really neat way of managing favorites. Oh, and slick integration with del.icio.us—I guess the list goes on, and I’m especially happy to see this browser come from the Firefox codebase. Rah rah. 
Ok, so this "first post" was really just a weak attempt at having something to say. I post so rarely here that I’m not sure it’s worth it. But maybe antrhopologists will find these old blogs on old crashed hard drives when they dig us all up hundreds of years from now and wonder what in the world we were blathering on about. Speaking of blathering…good luck, and good night.
