Strangely, I moved to another blogsite mid-season. Close to 4th of July, I got my own domain and declared independence from Blogger. I then came out strongly against memes (especially the Internet party talk variety) and wrote some posts about Japanese food. I’ve played around with the blog’s appearance a few times, but I keep coming back to the Prismacolor theme.
Project Runway, Pride, and Comic-Com should provide me no shortage of posts. I don’t doubt I’ll find some other material in the meantime.
I’ve also wanted to revive the podcast, but more or less start again. I’ve created the page, but I haven’t posted any materials. I plan to create personal audio logs, vlogs like I did last fall, and readings of creative works. I’ll set a date in August as I want to get it right and keep going.
One work I’ve wanted to feature for a long time here is Resplendence. I’ve tried creating a website a few times, but I think I should be able to render it the way I want to here. I’ll also set it for August as I’m working on getting text ready for the posts. I also want to get reproductions of the images going.
My goal for the post-Blogger incarnation of ShindoTV is to generate and create a body of content. I definitely want it to be the kind of place where I’d come back to check out. I think I’m doing well to avoid the obvious memes (what I call the “party questions”), but it helps to try to write a post instead of letting something else speak for you.
Also, I think I won’t resort to anything to get notice. No more breaking news on Chris Crocker’s lawsuit or all the other trivialities of pop culture (not that it’s fun, but it’s all about me here). Some of these types of post have generated lots of hits, but I’m not really proud of them at all. I do stand by some other things that aren’t as popular hit-wise, but are much more interesting.
Oh, I do owe some thanks to Chris for getting me out of hiding and start posting again. Blog death could have happnend.
