Blogs are only worth reading when the writer is in the midst of some kind of exciting adventure, has specific experience or knowledge that you’re interested in learning from, or is your son.

I have been doing ostensibly the same thing in the same place for 7 months now, which is peanuts to the “adults” out there but for me it’s the longest I’ve ever stuck with one thing (counting school one semester at a time, and anyway my longest continuous stint there was 4 semesters and I switched majors in the middle of that). I don’t count working at a startup as a blog-worthy exciting adventure because it doesn’t involve many pretty pictures. I’m not yet an expert in anything notable. I am somebody’s son, but that has limited appeal.

Since my life is now an incredible bore (unblogworthy) I’ve decided I should blog about more interesting subjects: other people.

Look for the first in this series the next time I have free time =)
