What’s that rule about works whose title is a query?
Anyway, somebody wrote on Medium that private web sites are useless as a result of we’ve all moved on to writing on different platforms or one thing. I neglect. It was a kind of weblog posts the place the writer writes one sentence at a time. Or fairly, their paragraphs are one sentence lengthy. It’s very annoying and distracts me from studying the article.
The strains that I did learn acquired me considering, although. Is the private web site useless? Are we higher off handing issues over to the LinkedIns for networking, the Facebooks for updating our pals and family members on what we’re doing, and the TikToks for being inventive and entertaining others? Heck, is anybody studying this proper now?
Properly, you’re. And I thanks for studying. Massive kudos in the event you’ve been studying my weblog posts going again to 2003 once I was on Blogger, or 2005 once I moved over to WordPress. (The Blogger posts are lacking, by the way in which. Maybe perpetually. Unhappiness.)
So why do I preserve this weblog once I’m busy writing on Medium, Substack, and that different place? Why preserve it if the principle methods I replace everybody are the old style methods, with texts and emails (and the occasional handwritten letter)? Properly, I need to preserve the streak going. I’ve been writing on this weblog for over 20 years now, and I need to carry on doing it till the inevitable occurs… I’m speaking about an AI takeover, in fact.
Critically, although, with the appearance of AI, too a lot of my colleagues appear to be counting on it for his or her communications. I see AI-generated summaries of stories articles on social media, which isn’t essentially a nasty factor. It’s factor in the event that they’re going by tons of fascinating articles and are updating the remainder of the world on essentially the most urgent issues. It’s a nasty factor in the event that they’re simply doing it for clicks.
Not many are utilizing AI to put in writing total weblog posts. Not those that matter, anyway. Not those I love. Not those I take pleasure in studying.
So I’ll preserve writing on this weblog for the foreseeable future, as a result of it’s on this weblog the place I share with you the extra private, extra intimate particulars of life, love, and epidemics…
Thanks, once more, for coming alongside for the trip.
