This blog

Why, writing, blog, this, you, the reader.

As in, why do a blog, what do I write about, what is this, why a blog, and who you are.

A blog, because I wish for some of my thoughts to be accessible from the web by myself and others.

This is therefore a log set up on blogger with an account I already had. More specifically, what you are reading right now is a brief guide on the context.

For a context to make sense, there has to be a reciever - someone who needs the context to better understand what I'm on about. The reciever is you - wether you are actually exists - that is, wether I have more than 0 recievers, including myself - is up in the air.

But if you are there, this is what I assume about your context:

It doesn't matter why you are reading this, and it doesn't matter if I know you, but it does matter that you don't mind thinking over and analyzing what you read here, because my writing is habitually convoluted. It also matters that you have the patience to deduce my intention from the context. Finally it does matter that you ackknowledge that I don't write anything here if I don't have a point to make.

It may be an incorrect point, or incorrectly made, perhaps even incorrectly thought out if such a thing is possible. It may be a point relating entirely to me. But either way, there's an intention behind putting it up here.

The context I provide is this:

You may be able to take something away from this blog - fine. That's good. Allow yourself to be inspired. But don't steal anything. What I write here belongs to me, so if you take something, make sure it's something original to you. It will be a distinct advantage, when reading this blog, to be into culture, computers, programming and language. It will also be a distinct advantage to know me. In fact, it will be the most advantageous if you are me, which you probably are.

I will be writing here to jot down ideas, and weed out inconsistencies.

I do this, now at least, because I feel the need to keep this stuff in a central location where it will always be available and where I won't forget it.

Good luck reading and have fun with it. And don't take it too seriously - I'm not a particularly serious person. I just happen to enjoy expressing my ideas as if they are serious.
