When I logged on yesterday, I was surprised to see that my readership was way up: by the end of the day I had logged 2,698 page views for the day. That's about double what I was getting the few days preceding. Here is the link from Zoe Pollock.
Hell, if I knew she was going to link to that meditation on death and Hitchens, I would have polished it. Almost everything I post on this site is first-draftish. That is the nature of the 'sport' of blogging. The idea is to see if you can bang out something interesting, substantive, penetrating, muscular yet elegant, without spending the whole day doing it.
I have been blogging for over six years now on a daily basis. Something tells me I'm in it for the duration. It has added very considerably to the quality of my life, especially because of the likeminded friends I have made. You guys know who you are. The social networking that the Internet makes possible solves a very nasty problem of human relations: How can one find people one can relate to?
