Some things have good reasons. Others don’t. But all things are triggered somehow.
The reason for starting this blog (now and here) is a conversation I had at the MIT5 conference, which I have attended over the past three days. The conference was about media in transition and blogging was among the most important topics. I gathered it was totally “un” not to have a blog.
What kept me from blogging so far was probably this slight distinction between having something to say and having to say something. I had feared I was stuck with the second one before I realized that it is probably not even up to me to decide that; there is a community “out there” that will tell one from the other.
