I'll be a hundred and ten in the not too distant future, the old ship's got a few blotches, but she's still on course!

Too Much Too Often??


I wonder: am I sitting too often in front of my computer? Am I a guy, who's lost contact to the real world??
Nay my friends, nay! The contrary is the case: Only now did I get to know the real world! Now I know what this guy or gal sitting next to me on the bus or train might be thinking. Because I might have read their blog or seen their pictures on flickr! I've learned that we are not at all that different, we are indeed brothers and sisters(even the bible could be right here). And I've changed my attitude towards people, to more friendliness! That lady at the checkout: she could be the one who writes the blog I can't wait to read every day. The Americans, they are nice people, only the administration has been weird, but not they! I call some of them my best (online) friends!

Blogger and flickr (and at the beginning, around 2000, it was AOL and its chat rooms) did change my life! To the better!

Each time when I power on the machine, my first looks go to flickr (what have my friends seen, what can I learn from them this time?), to blogger (Eo, Abi, etc, and now Ray), and only after having done my update on their stuff is it that I go to all the other pages (banking, news, etc).

I'm glad I can enjoy all these contemporary amenities.

It can never be too often!!
