About Time

Dear Blog,

  • What happens to old posts?
  • Does anyone read them?
  • Where do they go?
  • Who records their passing?
  • Does anyone care about them?
  • Does their content become outdated?

And what happens to old websites?  Do you worry….

  • That you won’t be updated?
  • That you won’t remain current?
  • That you will get lost in the masses?
  • That you’ll disappear…
  • Be deleted…
  • Become outdated…
  • Or be replaced?

Will anyone remember you tomorrow?  Have you made a difference in the world?  Can you say:

  1. I stayed the same throughout; or…
  2. I changed with the times?

Both things that stay the same AND things that change “pass” (or get passed-by).  Your posts change.  Your blogness stays the same.  And tomorrow buries today.  So, today:  A post to mark your presence in the world!

Shout out (readers)!

Let the world know you were here today.

Nothing

on this site nothing happened

One of the lessons of history is that nothing is often a good thing to do and always a clever thing to say.
Will Durant
US historian (1885 - 1981)
