What’s a blog for?

I’ve realized that this blog has become useless in the way that I had envisioned it.  Way back in 2003, social networking sites were in their infancy, but blogs and sites like LiveJournal were all the rage.  I set up a LiveJournal account, later, my own Movable Type blog, then a wordpress.com blog.  Over time, I moved from regular, trivial updates, to documenting longer periods of time and vacations.  As sites like Facebook and microblogging have taken over the “what am I up to” space, the posts on this blog seem more and more redundant.  

Therefore, the purpose of this blog will become more theoretical.  I’ll mostly post political-type thoughts here and maybe more in-depth travelogues.  So, updates will be few and far between!  But if you use a feed reader like Google Reader, then my posts will just pop up in your list every now and then.
