"For all the interesting things on this planet the net has good resources." Do you truly believe that?

  No, honestly (and I thought obviously, but the text medium is limiting) I don't. But my interests are limited. My knowledge ('share'!) as well. If I learn Clojure and there are tons of blogs about Clojure, using Clojure, learning Clojure, Clojure in the real world.... why another one? I work with C#/.Net in my day-time. There's probably _nothing_ tech related to that stuff that isn't covered better by reading a very limited number of blogs and following people like Eric Lippert on SO (yes, this time I'm serious). I guess this distills down to the feeling of having nothing of global value to contribute, at which point I don't see why it should be published at all (vs. journal). A good part of my thoughts might be related to rules in society for me. In my world, shouting out chit-chat/smalltalk and whatever comes to ones mind is not clever and certainly not well-received. But - that's exactly my feeling towards writing a blog (no offense intended - I'm talking about my own issues starting my own blog. Works for you? Great).
