I've been playing with this blog for some time, but haven't yet come into my own with a discipline. I think I've been somewhat disappointed that my journals don't correlate dates as well as those of my friend Phil (now where is that link?).
Anywho, I'm blogging in a variety of spots, some seriously, some not, to put it briefly. Anything that is ecordell, cordelle (although I've shrunk from using that one because everyone begins to believe that it is the proper spelling of my last name), ernie_cordell, ernie-cordell, ernie.cordell and/or erniecordell is what I use for Yahoo, resumee-posting bulletin boards and promotion sites, HoTMaiL, Bebo, various email addresses, LinkedIn, Netscape, OKCupid, Ecademy, Gather, Tribe, etc.
Each has its own unique flavor, though I've reason to believe Tribe is about to go through a transformation (See Dr. Curmudgeon at Gather), I'll blog something to each site. This is like my personal-personal-personal blog, wide-open, no-holds-barred, tasteful-yet-delicately-sensuous blogging spot. I have to keep it because it is my only free-form manner of expression that reaches my friends.
My Google Blogger is at Ernie's Google-Blogger Blog and is maybe personal-personal, but it is where I direct my digg.com "Blog-It" button weblogging. While I generally read the programming features at Digg, I may read all sorts of things there, and hence I might comment on all sorts of things there; I don't want to be pinned down to a single mission at the Google-Blogger blog, so it's semi-professional but includes many things, yet is not as likely to have personal and religious posts on it, such as this one.
I've started a very focussed (please don't make me spell fawkewzd, I wouldn't make you shout the word in Newark) blog on ITToolbox, a professional IT community website, but I'd like it to be accessible to both computer professionals and casual computer users -- or maybe casual computer users who what to become IT professionals. In any case, I wanted to announce my "maiden post" on that blog and refer everyone to it, at
I really rather think you'll enjoy the mix of Philosophy, Mathematics, Computer Science, IT and common sense.
C'mon, take a chance . . . . Ernie
