Personal Weblog - Individual Entry


January 15, 2003
Were have I been surfing?

Going through my links of the past few days I found this which is a collection of posters based on WWII propaganda posters with a twist. The above is a sample that is very relavent to the present hearing for the US pilots who bombed and killed 4 Canadian soldiers in Afganistan...

Every day that I browse the web, I get one step closer to finding the ultimate portal. Presently my home page is set to cbc.ca which is better than most as a start page. I get all my local and Canadian (pretty unbiased) news. But it's still lacking something, Hollywood and Celebrity Gossip of course! If anyone knows of a decent place to call home let me know. No porn sites please!... I've already tried them all.

Since I've been blogging for over four months now, a whole new world of undiscovered personal pages, blogs and links has been opened up for me. I keep thinking to myself, where have I been surfing all this time. A whole sub-culture and community of users is out there. It all started with Blogger. I had this wonderful idea that I could go to a trade show and report my daily happenings at the same time. Well I was doing so much everyday that I just didn't have any time to make entries so it just fell apart. I will be going back this year and I am committed to blogging it this time around. I am also thinking of making it a group blog so many attendees can post on the blog... we'll see.

I'm learning about the blog ettiquete as well. I'ts all about commenting on each others blog, linking each other, what's called "trackback" and in general getting "out there" and participating in each others little worlds they've created. For some reason, I keep going back to this one blog. I was "forced", the word used loosely, to link up with Michelle because of the film-exchange project. I think what kept me comming back was the idea of peeking into the life of this person who was like me at some previous cross-section of my life. It was like going back in time to when I was going to college, working things out, getting in and out of relationships etc. It seems so long ago now, more like centuries. When she started talking about her relationship with her family, boom, I was hooked. Compared to other blogs out there, Michelle does not really reveal much, and when she does, there is a lot that I have to conclude on my own. That's ok, I can use my imagination and make it whatever i want it to be.
