Return of the Blog
For far too long I’ve not really blogged (http://twitter.com/AdamJPurcell aside). That’s made me feel a little guilty. Not because I think anyone else is disappointed (I doubt anyone has really noticed!) but because I find it interesting to look back at what I was thinking and doing, months or years later.
Sometimes I wondered if I should just leave this blog as a list of podcast entries. Should I be pushing the latest podcast down the page because of my ramblings? I’ve come to the conclusion – yes, why not? Most people seem to use iTunes to download the podcast (based on the Apache web server logs) and I suspect the majority of the others access it via the RSS Feed (http://blog.staggeringstories.net/?feed=rss2&cat=13). I shouldn’t use the podcast as an excuse not to blog! In fact it should be my inspiration.
When I listen back to some of our podcasts (especially if I’m editing that one) I, inevitably, think of all the things I intended to say but forgot or things I should have said but it just didn’t occur to me at the time. Isn’t a blog the perfect opportunity for me to redress that? No, I’m not expecting listeners to come here to get my personal podcast errata. It’s not a podcast patching service! Think of it as a DVD extra (probably the type you get on rubbish barebones DVDs, like a pointless cast bio that nobody ever looks at!)
Who knows, perhaps it might even spawn a little discussion or two along the way.  Maybe my podcast compadres might even be inspired to do the same, from time to time. We’ll see (will I even keep it up this time?!)
This entry was a bit of a NO-OP to start with but I hope to shortly talk a bit about the new Doctor Who companion (as to be played by Karen Gillan – character name currently unknown!), Ashes to Ashes and my thoughts on watching Star Trek: The Original Series from a newbies point of view.  We’ll see where it goes from there.
