Well, I've decided to make a second place for my thoughts... I've created a Live Journal account, and because of the nature of it's userbase (Mostly because of the engine...) I am going to use it to keep all my random one to 5 line posts. Basically, I plan to post once a day here, and only to rant about the big stuff: AIDS, Cybercrime, The big calculus test. But the Live Journal will pick up the hundered or so smaller posts that I typically discard on a daily basis (Usually before they even hit the keyboard... But not always...) This will clear up my main blog of all the little insanity induced posts that occasionally make it into my blog. Unlike the blog, however, I don't have any intention of having a tenative post schedule (Right now its one post every mon-fri... But you didn't know... :))

Why the change in heart you ask? (If you're confused, see this post) Well, it all comes down to convienience... Blogger is making large strides to make writing custom blogging clients easier to write. But so far, I havn't found one that I really liked (And definately don't have the time to write one.) On the other hand, The first Live Journal client I tried had many, many features to make spontaneous blogging easier. This includes, but is not limited to, automatic login, windows system tray mode (A feature which probably annoys most, but makes me happy, which is ironic seeing as that there is only 3 icons in my tray at the moment... :)), start on windows start, and much more. The whole thing is really convieninet for slamming down a quick note or two. I still hate Live Journal, but for this kind of purpose, that's still okay. The entries will all be about the same quality as the system being used to blog them, so, it makes reasonable sense.

Anyway, I'm off to play FFXI. Chao!
