Inception
Never thought the time frame between deciding to start a blog and the first actual post would be so long... Picking up the blog site, choosing a blog title, choosing an URL for the blog, choosing the language, the template and then struggling to write the first post...
The hardest part was choosing the URL because first 20 things that popped out my mind were magically "not available". One moment I had the impression that any combination of 2 or 3 English words is taken - though typing the combination in a browser would show a "page not found" - so not really taken. I really wonder who has cosmin.blogspot.com...
The second big dilemma was deciding for the language: Romanian or English?
Marketing Drive
The truth is the idea of "joelonsoftware.com" is appealing. Beside that: having a place like a store display one could use to "market" himself - make a brand out of it's own name and then being able to "promote" others, getting revenue out of it - no matter if adsense or just higher traffic on promotions. Greedy image, isn't it?
Communication
I find it as a good place to turn my beliefs in statements and then to debate them. A selfish need to publish my own monologues based on my own view over how things are. A place to build my own sandcastle with my own toys - turn my ideas into the shapes I imagine.
Good Night.
