OK. Let's get this party started.

First weblog entries are weird: you want to say something significant or important, but you can be pretty certain nobody is going to read it. (That's true of all blog entries, of course, but even more so of your very first.) But you don't want to be too grandiose, because (if you're me, anyway), there's a very good chance you will (that is: I will) only bother to keep the blog running for about a week before getting distracted, and there's something very hurting about a orphaned blog that opens with a lot of big fanfare and then dies, leaving this miserable little digital cobweb hanging in cyberspace. So our motto for starting out = LOW EXPECTATIONS, baby. Nobody gets hurt.

I had a Blogger powered weblog for a while. I used it mainly for riffs on history stuff I was reading, but I don't think anyone was really reading it but me (was the world not ready for a weblog about 19th century patent medicines?). That site is down for the moment while I revise it for the academic job market. This one will probably end up being be more gamer geek oriented, since all the people I know on LiveJournal I know through gaming. So stand back and look out for stray d4s. Nee-yargh.

So I'm assuming that 'revise for the academic market' means no naked photos of you in the Himalayas?
