It has been awfully quiet round here

It has been three months since my last post, and while I have not pos­ted here or at my other blog, I have not aban­doned either site.

As I have only worked 50 of the last 100 days, this blog should be full of inter­est­ing posts on CSS and other web geekery. Instead noth­ing, why?

  • Most of my blog posts are writ­ten on the train to and from work. Work­ing less and cyc­ling more has reduced this time from five hours a week to less than two.
  • Work often provides inspir­a­tion for posts, how­ever, instead of work­ing with HTML, CSS or web 2.0, I have been work­ing with JavaS­cript, jQuery and the intric­a­cies of MySo­urce Mat­rix work­flows. While this keeps me busy, it is not push­ing any bound­ar­ies or provid­ing mater­ial to blog about.
  • I am spend­ing more time on my other pas­sion, cyc­ling, includ­ing acquir­ing a couple of pro­ject bikes to build. While I am happy and con­fid­ent in my web mech­anic skills to blog about build­ing any­thing web related. My bicycle mech­anic skills are lim­ited and I rather not exposed them to the everybody.

So what does this future hold for this blog, well until I my interest in CSS, HTML and web 2.0 top­ics is fired up, you will see a few cyc­ling related posts. Most will be reviews of cyc­ling related products (I have a couple of c
Crumpler bags to review) as well as some pro­gress reports on my pro­ject bikes. It will not be another 100 days of silence.

    Cyc­ling does this too you it is very addict­ive. It’s an entire world, com­munity and sub cul­ture. In 1999 — 2002 I dropped of the web because of cyc­ling, to the point that I just deleted everything.

    Just remem­ber that the other worlds exist, eh.
