Essay
Woah, hold on a sec...
The very first post on this blog — a short, personal note setting the tone before anything technical arrives. A pitch for philosophical tangents, the occasional technical rant, and questionable wordplay, and a quiet request to come back for post number two.
Hi there, how are you doing? I hope you’re comfortable… I really need you to enjoy the reading experience here on this blog, as I need you to come back from time to time.
You see, I always try to stay “professional”, and “unambiguous”, and all sorts of other adjectives when communicating with clients and partners. But I want to build this site into a blog where I can also communicate in a more personal way, without censoring myself. To make this work, though, I’ll probably need an audience to keep me motivated. That’s where you, the reader, come into play.
So, if you’re okay with philosophical bouts and technical rants, paired with inadequate humour and word plays that seem witty to me only, you’re very welcome! This blog will probably end up having posts about “Software Development”, “Self-Employment”, “Technology”, “Uncategorized”! I’ll even throw in a “Personal” or two.
You can probably see the area at the bottom of this post, right? This is where you can put in your complaints. Don’t think my jokes are funny? Just let me know, and I’ll make sure I’ll perhaps consider eventual possibilities of optional change.
This post has been dragging along already, and without much substance, so I’ll stop here. But I count on you to be present when I publish the next post, so don’t disappoint me, dear “Reader”! ;)
See you on post #2!
Alain
