I started blogging as I was inspired that I could write quality articles that people would enjoy reading.I thought that I would have my own style and I would be able to meet new people and exchange ideas.

Unfortunately I have become distracted with many other areas and aspects of blogging that I did not even realize existed when I first started this adventure.I temporarily became obsessed that everything in this blog had to be of a similar style, length, quality and be strictly on the topics that I mention in my blurb.I was also getting too focused on things like conversion rates for advertising, alexa ranking, unique visitors and people subscribing to my feed.

I have found that I am interested in much more than what I have listed and also have many probing questions on other areas incidental to what I am doing personally, professionally and online that I feel need to be discussed.

What I have decided to do is to write about whatever is important or interesting as it comes up.Now generally these areas should be restricted to technology, programming, law, history as these are my primary focuses but anything else that arrives across my desk is fair game.

I am also going to stop looking at if anyone is subscribing to my feeds, remove all but some very simple advertising and not try to write things that I feel deserve recognition by noted authorities in their field, be dug, stumbled or anything else.If this is going to happen to me then all is good, if it does not then that is going to be my loss.

I have also discovered that even though everything is online, and they are “social networks” that you need to be able to interact with people and get to know then, that they are not just things to expect will come if you write well enough.It is funny but I never really thought about the users of social networks being in it for social reasons it always had felt to me that it was more democratic because it was online.

I now am going to focus on the social aspect of tings with my posts, not trying to get dugg or trying to be stumbled repeatedly, but meeting people who have read my posts and having real dialogs with them.

The thing I guess that has saddened me the most that I would like some interaction on what I am writing, because they are things that I have thought to myself for some times and I thought a blog would be an arena where I would be able to discuss them with people like me and grow from the experience (or maybe that my niche of people in their twenties who have a genetics and computing degree and almost lawyers is just me?)

Oh well, I hope that you, the reader appreciate the new approach to terabell; and that it is more enjoyable and crosses different areas that you would like to be a part of

Part of this change was inspired by a colleague that said that he did not like niche blogs and that if the quality of writing was decent enough and there were posts relevant to his area of specialty every now and then he appreciated a source of ideas the he could trust, whatever the content.If you disagree with this and think that a blog should be purely on topic then please let me know.
