Me...but online

I'm kinda addicted at the moment to the idea of having a whole other life online. I stop short of checking out of reality and signing up for Second Life or WoW, but in the last week have updated profiles for Lastfm, Twitter, Bebo, Facebook, Flickr and the dreaded myspace. Don't know why I bother when the only site that any of my friends use online is bebo but I just prefer a few of the others. I also have a macabre fascination with the stories i've seen where people die but their myspace page becoming a living memorial to them. More and more I'm using stuff like Google Docs, Calendar, backpack, basecamp and my internet enabled phone.

I already have my entire, 16000 song music collection with me 24 hours a day on my ipod, so it makes sense to have access to my entire photo collection, important documents and anything else pretty much wherever I am.

I'm going to make an attempt to stick with the blog this time and update it at least once a week. More than anything else, should be a good place to stick those stupid ideas that pop into my head from time to time that amuse no one but me, which shouldnt really matter since no one but me is likely to read this anyway!

Slight Return

Wow, its been almost 2 whole years since I last posted here! I decided to return to the blog since a lot more of my friends have an online presence than they did 2 years ago and I want somewhere I can pull everything together. Am still toying with the idea of actually registering paradasos.com and just sticking everything on there then pointing all my various web profiles back there. we shall see...Also, I still dont have a whole lot of a great deal to say about my life that I would want to share on a blog so it remains to be seen whether I will actually post anything more than I did last time...

Layout

Incidentally, the current layout of the blog is a pure 'off the shelf' number just to get it up and running. Hopefully, I'll customise it a bit more and design my own layout soon

Side Bar

Playing around with Flickr and Blogger I discovered I could add this cool wee flash animated link button of all my photos...If you cant see it, it means that, as I suspect, It's completely draining my allocated bandwidth for the month on Flickr...I'm tempted to pay for full membership but we'll see

Photo's are up

OK, Change of plan...I've decided to use Flickr for all my photo posts. I'll start with my Germany Holiday from earlier this year and will work through from there.

I've picked out my Fave pics from day 1 in Berlin and they are now available to view here

The photo's are a combination of those taken by me and by Sydne.

Hallooo

The intention here is mainly for somewhere to show my photo's and record random thoughts...havent yet decided if I'll use Flickr for image hosting or not...I'll see how much this place lets me upload first
