For starters I obviously haven't gotten into the mobile blogging although I should really still consider it b/c it's hard enough for me to get online without 30 other things to do but sit and recap on how busy I've been. Maybe the issue is that I need to pick a topic and stick to it. Music might make perfect sense considering I'm doing a little work in the industry right now and it's not always something to be taken too seriously.
Today I discovered a great song on playlist.com. It's a remix by The XX called "You've got the love"
I don't remember where I discovered The XX last month but they got me hooked with their super-mellow slightly-solemn soultry acoustics over this RAD drum machine they use all the time... Was really bummed I missed them at the Independent here in SF a few days ago.
Also just discovered a great electronica blog if yer into that kinda thing http://www.ilictronix.com/
Nite nite!
Wednesday
I just signed up for the mobile "blog from anywhere" and I just think it's the greatest idea that Twitter already claimed. Its powered by SMS texting so it requires a limited # 0f characters as well..
I commute 2 hrs almost every day and it should be interesting to see if the mobile posting can keep up with the quality of posts that are created from computer keyboards.
In essence, with a mobile blog, some of my best ideas can be captured on the go before I have too much time to forget them.
Also, the importance of timeliness may factor in bigger than I can define right now. I know that timeliness is one of the main reasons that a story will make the news along with community and some sort of shock value.
The only real drawbacks I see from a mobile posting standpoint are increased typos, shortened entries (sent via SMS Text) and I maybe slightly less resourceful with the staggering internet on my than when.
I'll have to touch back on this once I've tweeted a few times..

why I start a blog
An honest start: I've been planning to start a blog for professional reasons for about a year now and I'm in a sort of disbeleif that I will successfully update posts with the frequency that I desire...
Most of the inspiration for me to start writing tonight is due to being hoodwinked by blogger.com. I was just peeking at a good friend and former neighbor's photo-blog and wanted to leave a comment because she's really taking off and doing good things.. I understand that I have to sign in to leave a comment, but before I could look away it was time to come up with a title and layout for my very own blog.
Anyhow, a quick shout out to Dania Maxwell www.daniapatricia.com and Dorian Hood @dorianhood on twitter. These two are both headed in great creative direction and have been doing what I keep talking about starting for sometime.
