For the Old Dog

Before I forget - this is something you might want to try out to add to your resume: Librivox. I guess this goes for the rest of you, too. It's an initiative to get volunteers to read books and texts in the public domain out loud and record it for the Librivox database. We downloaded a few classics for our recent trips and found that some of the volunteers either tried too hard to "act" or had zero charisma. Precious few were good at it. OD, what do you say?

I gotta look at the blogs more! I would totally do this. Good practice and a good idea.

Why Do I Do This?

I was originally inspired by the Web log posted on the site for Propellerhead Software. They developed a cool 808 emulator which eventually morphed into an entire digital audio workstation package (Reason). Those early posts documented their development process and gave a human insight into their struggles. It was cool. So, I bought some hosted space and figured out FrontPage to put a rudimentary site together. My goal was to connect my family, but then realized this could be a great way for me to keep track of happenings over time. Eventually, the manual, HTML journal gave way to this Blogger setup - much easier to deal with, and not bound to one computer.

Ultimately, this is more about nothing than an episode of Seinfeld, but I appreciate that you've read this far. Really.
