On blogging...

How extraordinary. Somebody wants to read what I have to write.

I originally had this feeling that a blog was a kind of radical diary, untraceable and protected, freely unilateral. But reader, here you are! Turning up on my doorstep, wet and cross. Dear reader, how can I not oblige with my digital binary version of a hot chocolate, an open fire and a sincere apology.

At the same time, this is no reason for narcissism. On the contrary - it is not I that the reader cares for, it is the medium itself. Blogging must be honoured! How interesting... How exciting... I had no idea...

Onward, to the breach! Blogs away!
