because I can
Sunday, June 1st, 2008People are asking me why am I so stubborn to have my own website. I should behave as a normal IT guy, keep my photos on Flickr, videos on YouTube and friends on Facebook. This way I won’t have to work too much and my ‘creativeness’ will be easily accessible.
But I refuse! Even if Web 2.0 is a good world to live in I feel slightly limited by it’s walls as well as feel queasy because of it’s homogenised nature. I don’t want to be a drop in the running river of content. It’s not the placement of the content or the community around it that matters here, but the content itself. Therefore I am putting it on the banks of the Internet on purpose - here it can stand slightly above the Web 2.0 sea level, here it belongs.
Happy Children’s Day,
