All that&#8217;s missing is a partridge in a pear tree, and sometimes that appears to be there as well. The world of online communication and connection is pretty different that it was nine years ago, when I slapped a bunch of Python scripts onto a server running in a closet in my house. For all the other forms that have emerged, blogging still has a warm place in my heart. I&#8217;ve used this blog to host long (some might say too long) and short form content over the years. I never really mastered the short form content, so it was easy for that to migrate off into Twitter land. Some of the more personal stuff that I used to write has also gone to Twitter, or to a lesser degree Facebook, but there hasn&#8217;t been a lot of time for that, so most of it has gone by the wayside. What remains is the much longer form content. Unfortunately, firing up Ecto and writing a few dozen paragraphs doesn&#8217;t come easily, and getting over some of that inertia is what&#8217;s kept more content from appearing here.<\/p>\n<p>Despite my initial misgivings, I like Google Plus. I like the ability to write short to medium content, as well as really nice picture support. I like how easy it is for conversations to start.

I&#8217;d like there to be, and I plan to keep on posting, but at the same time, there are only so many hours in a day.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Twitter, Google Plus, Facebook, Flickr, 500px. pinterest on the horizon.
