If I want to scream into the void, I can do that anywhere and anytime, and I do not need a web server to do it.
To quote Ariel, I want to be where the people are.
This is true. I like being able to talk to people on the internet down hopefully make a friend somewhere along the way. The fact that this is still hard is something we really need to work on. I've just never really felt the need for a personal website, I'm not into blogging or I can probably already have one. I just don't write enough of that level of substance to build myself a Blog of any sort and I'm not really interested in the attention that publishing seems to imply. I like things a bit more casual.
Thats why you join a web ring with your website.
And to paraphrase Michael Bolton from Office Space, why should we be the ones who have to move? The corporations are the ones who suck!
