First things first......

My first assumptions in starting this were fairly basic: if you write something instead of just saying it, you have to think about it first.  If you are writing for anyone to see, maybe you should think about it more before posting.

Facebook seems to favor the short attention span, and too often violates my two previous assumptions.  Twitter? No.  Just no.  Maybe it would be useful in sending a short shopping list, or broadcasting the obvious ("It is HOT today!"), but not of much value for expressing anything more than a knee-jerk reaction.

Which leads to blogging. If Creed can do it, so can I.
