What's on your blog?

  1. What’s the URL to your blog?
    http://www.ronincyberpunk.com (surprised huh? ;))

  2. What’s the last thing you’ve blogged about?
    I wrote a post yesterday about a restaurant in Fort Lauderdale, as well as providing a cheat sheet of veggies I eat.

  3. Are comments from Doper visitors okay?
    Absolutely :slight_smile:

  1. www.bulblet.com

  2. Usually I blog about my garden, but today I posted about my new kitty cat.

  3. Sure, I’ve already heard from Hokkaido Brit. (Also I might get some from posting those pics in my, sigh, cat thread.) :slight_smile:

Blogging obviously is beneficial/has worth to the authors, and usually to said author’s friends/family as well.

Just because you don’t perceive any benefit/worth doesn’t mean there is none. That’s kind of a sad, narrow way to view the world, don’t ya think?

Last thing I blogged about was some knitting projects I worked on…

Yes comments from Dopers are fine!

  1. I used to have one on Xanga, mostly to see what the Kid and her friends were up to, but they’ve all MySpace’d lately, and that just doesn’t do it for me. So, I’m here now.

  2. Being in a crappy mood of late. Yeah, I still am.

  3. You betcha.

PS: I have **DiosaBellissima’**s bookmarked and pop in once in a while, because she’s wicked funny. (BTW - I don’t AOL much anymore, but hi! ::waves:: miss me?)

:: waves :: Hi! Sure! :smiley:

I’m far from wicked funny, I’m just a bored, only child and behave as such. I hardly am worthy of Bostonian slang.

dnooman, I suppose you are against personal websites as well, yes? A blog is hardly different than a personal website (at least, not how and what I post to mine).

  1. Ardwyn Farm News

  2. I wrote about killing a duck and how my garden and other critters are doing.

  3. Sure, I just ask that no none tries to get “political” as I promised myself I would keep my personal views separate from this blog.

As to the point of what “good” a blog is. My family and friends use it to keep track of what we are up to, my customers use it to get an idea of living conditions are like for our animals and where and when they might find us at Farmer’s Markets, I use it to remind myself how different plants do in the garden and when things should be planted and harvested.

I’m not nearly as dedicated a blogger as I should be, but my blogs: Dirty French Novel and Neologasm.

Last thing blogged about: a short round of Odd Man Out; boylesque

Comments from anyone except spammers are OK, which is why I’ve got Spam Karma running on them.

It’s more of a personal journal than a blog per se, but it’s called …there’s got to be a pony in here somewhere. I’ve been writing in it for about three years, I guess. I’ve got a circle of invisible friends developed through it, and we all read and comment on each other. It’s entirely personal, and if you don’t know me, it probably won’t be interesting to you.

I last bitched about the heat; I’m pretty inconsistent with the updating and it’s too hot in my home office to sit in there and type. I love comments though!

My primary online journal is at Livejournal, same username as my Doper handle.

My most recent entry is about a philosophical connection I made between esoteric theory and BDSM. Mostly, lately, it’s been full of whining about the aggravations of packing up my house and getting ready to move. Under normal circumstances it is full of my wordcounts (I get more work done when I post my progress), random funny incidents from my life, what-I-did-todays, fragmentary bits of theology, and a smattering of baseball, cat stories, World of Warcraft, food, and the occasional seething rant.

Should Doper visitors wander by and have comments, they’re certainly welcome, though I don’t know that I’m terribly interesting. For people without LJ accounts, I note that I have anonymous comments automatically posting hidden; I unscreen the ones from real people as soon as I notice them unless asked not to. (That’s for troll and spam control.)

  1. aesiron.livejournal.com
  2. Music (which has been an overriding theme in my journal for about a month now) and a couple anecdotes about work. My journal is pretty journal-y; lots of day to day stuff and light on the Deep Thoughts.
  3. Sure. I like comments.

I’m a blog whore. I have more than one, but I’m going to post the one I use most.

1. What’s the URL to your blog?
Yesterday Laughs, http://yesterdaylaughs.livejournal.com/

2. What’s the last thing you’ve blogged about?
My boyfriend coming home from a weeklong gig.

3. Are comments from Doper visitors okay?
Sure, except that you have to have a livejournal user account.

  3. Are comments from Doper visitors okay?
    Definitely!

What The Beans?! My Bloggy.

Last Post: The Highlights of My Office Job Day

And all comments and visits are welcome and encouraged.

I literally just started my blog and it is more for my own benefit. If anyone else finds it interesting I would be thrilled, but it being another “Diary of a Poker Player” of which there are hundreds, if not thousands, already on the web, I don’t think it will change the world.

  1. Cry Me A River

  2. Last/First Post: "7-2 Offsuit: The Myth of the Worst Hand in Hold’Em "

  3. Sure, I would love comments.

Well my Blog is about an going project for a series of short animated films Possibly a "webshow"using “The Movies” Program.

http://headquartersofdoom.blogspot.com/

It is new and so far it is has two entries announcing releases and links as told by the characters of the show.
Weird I know…

I’m hoping to expand it to include some of my ideas and thoughts on the project as well as add a few entertaining views on world events as seen by the characters of the show.

Anyone who wants to look on can feel free to leave comments (especially if you follow the links to the show itself.) I’d actually appreciate it… It’s lonely out in the bloggosphere.

One thing that has bothered me a bit in the “blogosphere” is the whole “blog as a ticket to book deal” thing. I run in knitblog circles ferchrissakes and people take themselves so f#@&^g seriously.

Of course, I can’t really complain. Because of the support & enthusiasm I felt from my peers I started my own home business in the area; we’ve celebrated a year and I’m not broke yet.

Anyway, my personal blog is spaazlicious , and my last post was about our newest foster dog, knitting baby hats, and how excited I am about a new spinning wheel that’s coming out. All comments are welcome, of course, although I’m not such a SD regular that I’d recognize them specifically from this message board.

#1 http://doc-cathode.livejournal.com/ I call it The Big Book Of Things Man Was Not Meant To Know

#2 I wrote about somebody revealing they didn’t understand most of my entries. Then, in a veiled way, I wrote about an IO error with an IBM 8086, and working on my Halloween costume.

#3 Comments from almost anybody are welcome. It’s always good to know people are reading.

You know, as I read this thread, I was immediately struck with this image of the “Social Secvrity” woman in Mel Brooks’ film History Of The World: Part I asking each poster:

“Did you Blog last week?”

“Did you try to Blog last week?”

Sorry, I know it’s largely irrelevant, but amusing nonetheless… :smiley:

  1. What’s the URL to your blog?
    Doug’s Wonder Blog

  2. What’s the last thing you’ve blogged about?
    “Where are they now? Babes of the 80’s.” I post links or news I find of interest along with trip pictures. It’s not an opinion blog or a journal about my fascinating life.

  3. Are comments from Doper visitors okay?
    I don’t do comments. I got so few it was mostly worthless.
