Last post of 2008…

Finally, last day of the year.

It’s the occasion to look back on 2008. I find lots of positive points :

I lowered my blogging addiction, which is good for saving some time, and bad for my blog.

However, I realised blogging doesn’t just mean ripping off things here and there from the internet and posting them. It should be about creating something original and fun for the internet.  The internet is like a beast some of us have to feed. Or it’s just the sum of all our insignificant stories, ideas, images. It’s still a beautiful thing, let’s hope it stays that way. I just wish it could be consumed more easily, as a fancy drink or as a mdedicine or a drug that would be painlessly injected, feeding us daily with the flow of the world. No, not like TV.

So If I continue this blog, it should be more personal and hopefully more a display of my own creativity if I have any left.

One fact also is that I changed job,  I have now more money and less hassles.

I think I take less responsability of what doesn’t belong to me and concentrate on doing a quality work for which I am paid for.

I am now in a communication department and I work on our internal magazine. I also publish my own section on the corporate intranet, with stories and images I gather around.  I do it in French and English. My previous job was English only.

They also asked me to contribute to an internal blog about the internet, but on our intranet.

So that’s probably why I slowed down personnal blogging here.  My compulsive need to put something online is fulfilled already.

And I like Facebook a lot finally. Facebook is a bit like paradise : you find yourself hanging out with long lost friends and lovers and we are all very happy.

I had a false name on Facebook so far, I didn’t want anobody to find me. I was a bit paranoid, I guess. You know, just in case, what they say about the CIA…  Now I can be found and nobody gives a shit. So much for my inflated ego.

Stay tuned for more next year, hopefully. I’ll be blogging from various locations. More about that later.
