It’s 2011 And I’ve Found Something New
Dear WordPress, my traditional blog on which I’m writing for NogsOnline.com right now:
I’ve neglected you. There, I said it. I’m sorry. But, I’ve found something new for this year. I’ve started a tumblelog on Tumblr called John Cachero’s (Minimally) Stupendous Things.
You’re probably wondering why, right? It’s not you, WordPress, it’s me. I just don’t have the time to invest when we need to work together to make magic. I just need something easy and quick; a fling that I can casually go back to, whenever I need, at any time during the day… even posting from my iPhone. Tumblr can give that to me. With Tumblr, I can quickly express whatever feelings I’m having at that moment, especially the random things that I like or a random photo or something.
I know you’ve had to watch me do that with Twitter already, but it’s not quite the same thing. However, it’s in the equation still. Look, I want all of us to work it out together. Each of you has a purpose and here’s how I plan to make it work:
- Twitter will be there for when I need to express myself in just a few sentences.
- Tumblr will be there for when I need to express myself in a few paragraphs or for when I want to share a photo, video, or song.
- You, WordPress, will be there for when I need to express myself in a long-winded essay requiring several paragraphs.
So, see?! I’m not getting rid of any of you!
Oh, yeah… every now and again, I’ll be writing articles for AltDaily.com or some other outlet for which I could technically use you, but would rather get the better exposure using them. Again, it’s not you, it’s me. I’m the one that neglected you to the point of being forgotten.
I promise that we will work together again soon. Trust me.
Your author,
John
