Good question. I don’t know if it’s some kind of territorial thing, or if I just have to have my name staked everywhere. But even then I still really have no idea why I have to have one or two blogs somewhere.

I guess I just like to do it and spread myself way thin.

Anyways, this site is strictly as a backup for my haroyoshi.com site. That’s all. It’s here just in case that site goes down during the Blogathon.

So I guess I’ll post here when I feel like it. LOL Not sure why I am compelled to update something on this website now. LOL

Because I can’t have enough websites, I’ve opened up a new website. This could get interesting.

Ryan put on his list about MySpace pretty much as a haven for those under the age of 21. While I agree with this sentiment, I think people are really losing sight of what MySpace was originally intended to be.

MySpace in the old days was a haven for musicians to display their music. While over the years, it’s changed (a LOT), I still think it’s that same haven, because that’s why I had an account in the first place. To keep up with my friends band.

One thing about MySpace however, is I’ve met a lot of old folks that I would probably never have heard from again, only because they either found me on MySpace or I found them. Granted, there are those people who find me through this site too. MySpace is a social site, just like Orkutz or Facebook, and all the other crazy social sites. It’s popularity is just incredible.

I also use MySpace because of the popularity. It’s one way to get attention. Post a bulletin to your friends and watch how it cascades into a long stream of forwards. When my wife’s co-worker’s daughter was missing, I sent out a bulletin with information for her website, and guess what, we found her, and all because of that bulletin. Amazing how that works.

In many ways, using MySpace is just wrong. I cannot believe the amount of sexual predators on that site. But in other ways, MySpace does good work. It’s a yin-yang thing I think.

What do you think of MySpace? Is it a haven for the underground teenagers? Should adults just refrain from even opening up an account? What’s your opinion?

I just wanted to let everyone know that due to my love of food, how much I love to talk about it, and how much I love to eat it, I’ve finally gotten around to getting a new site up exclusively about food. hello! Food is a new site that will have various things about food, including recipes, reviews, and just general “I love this food” type posts. There’s not much there at this moment, but bookmark it for the future, and add it to your aggregators, as I’m expecting this site to get busy.

I really wanted to open the site up for a community as well. So if you have a love for food similar to mine, and would like to be a contributor to hello! Food, then by all means, let me know, and we can get all set up for that.

I’m working on this site. I’m not quite sure what I’ll be doing here, however, last year, this was my backup blogging site for the blogathon.
