I love Wikipedia. Any site that's got a longer entry on "truthiness" than on Lutherans, has its priorities straight.

So I attended today a debate hosted by Mount Royal University for communication students that dealt with internet and the new social media technologies like Twitter and Facebook. Though it was fairly mild and lot less heated than I thought it would be, it was still very interesting. Of course, it was a fairly small audience and the two debaters seemed to have a level of familiarity with each other, so it was very calm and in a way much less intriguing.

The debate itself wasn't extremely informative, rather it stated what a lot of people know about social mediums in a much more formal and intelligent form, it was done in a way that both contenders  certainly seemed to have given some overlapping points without completely being able to expand on it (which was unfortunate).

So, with the whole technology frenzy and all that other bullshit that was going on in the world, I decided that I was falling behind times with everyone else if I didn't start my own blog. In my honest opinion (or at least at first) creating a blog would be meaningless unless having a constant growing, well-intentioned audience. That alone (save other reasons like time commitment and constraining outside factors) put me off from the start to opening up to blogs.
