A Blogging Experiment
Mar. 27th, 2007 11:09 amWe call this project "Jetpack Monkey watches a lot of movies and talks about them." It's similar in concept to the Screening Log over at one of my very favorite movie review websites Not Coming To a Theater Near You. I watch a movie. I talk about said movie. I invite you, the reader, to join in the discussion of said movie. Easy.
I'm doing this because I want to open up my journal a bit. I admire blogs like![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
liz_marcs or Making Light that have an element of universalism to them. The bloggers speak of that which interests them, but do so in a way that they capture the interest of others who then speak on that interest.
Lately, I've come more and more to the conclusion that my personal life should remain personal, shared with the few rather than the many. I still want to contribute words, however, and this seems like the easiest way to do it. This won't affect the format of the journal too much. Fewer memes, probably, but otherwise, things should remain the same. It's like adding a new section to the newspaper.
What do you think?
