State of the Blog: ASoC Year One

by CrazyIvan

So apparently, I have some new readers. *Waves at the people that Doug’s sent this way.* I guess that means I’ll have to post more often. I’m going to try, we’ll see how it goes. So I was going to do this anyway and this seems as good of a time as any. This blog just turned a year old, it started, for the reason most men start most things: To impress a girl. I kept it up because I like the oppurtunity it gives me for self-reflection. This blog exists primarally for me. Anything else anyone gets out of it is purely incidental. When looking through old post it does seem like I need to do some serious editing, maybe I’ll get around to that. There were 103 posts the first years. That’s roughly an average of 2 posts per week, which is more than I would have guess (of course there are some month long gaps in there). So here’s the top 10% of this blog’s first year, in no particular order (because 90% of everything is crud):

Year One Greatest Hits

  1. Writing Styles -I think I managed to express some of my feelings about writing I hadn’t been able to articulate before
  2. How online music is destroying private property, the free market, and the human spirit-I have very strong feelings about IP-issues and this is the most coprehensive thing I’ve written
    Part I Part II Part III Part IV
  3. On Prostitution Part I Part II
  4. So That’s Why I Didn’t Get Laid In High School-Sex and graph theory, yum!
  5. With a Little Help From My Friends… I like this post because it reminds me of what I was going through when I wrote it and that I got through it.
  6. The Facebook “Hack”-The amount of search traffic this thing has generated is just ridicous. I’ve almost taken it down a couple of times, but anything that generates traffic can’t be that bad. Not to mention the emails/IMs. THIS DOES NOT LET YOU CIRCUMVENT NORMAL FACEBOOK RESCRICTIONS. No, I don’t know how, don’t ask.
  7. My disenchantment with the college experience
  8. The best pissed off political post
  9. Don’t Pet The Cripple

Well at least I got SOMETHING done today.
