Well, here I am … about 5 or 6 posts in, and I’m annoyed.

Why? Well, I’m ready for blogging to be uncool.  I’m ready for something else … like … well, I guess if I knew I would be doing that and not writing a post.  Anyway, what I’m trying to say is that Storples will be on pause until the next cool thing comes along, or I come up with something that becomes cool.

The web is supposed to be fun, and posting blogs so that people I probably talk to everyday can read about something I probably told them at lunch … is not that much fun (to me).  Maybe my audience is too small, or maybe … anyway, you get the point.

I won’t say, come back soon, or any boring stuff like that.  You’ll stumble across here again someday, or I’ll tell you to check it out.  Until then, enjoy!

Today I decided that Storples had suffered enough.  From it’s beginnings as a place for me to learn HTML, to a place where friends would gather to gawk and my private content.  It did, however, always serve the purpose of providing me a place to learn to code … when I went from HTML to Perl, and briefly, Perl to PHP.

In more recent versions, I attempted to bring it up to speed with face lift after face lift, all the while not improving on the one thing it lacked … content.

So here we are today.  I am sadly abandoning the old ways … detailing “what I’ve been up to” or “check out this sweet car”.  No, today I turn Storples into what I have wanted it to be for quite a long time … a technology blog.

I am sure to alienate most, if not all my long time readers … and I’ve come to terms with that.  Hopefully these half-dozen or so people will find it still interesting, but if not, I appreciate the attention you gave the site all these years.  I couldn’t have done, or rather, wouldn’t have done it with out you.  Sure, there will probably never be a GOTW again, but surely you’ve found better places to find that stuff by now!

Anyway, here we go …
