It seems that my esteemed fellow MIT alum, Bill Cammack, felt the need to call me out regarding my website stats.
Like Bill, I know you were all keeping score of my stats and too wondered what had happened.
The truth is, I often times don’t know what to do about this blog. Sure, I write about things I feel like getting off my chest in regards to what’s going on with my professional community. But sometimes, I don’t necessarily enjoy writing about those things. I have my musings, my opinions, but rarely do they ever make it to my blog window. I have a few IM conversations, I might tweet about the topic once or twice–and I am done. I was never really into writing about these things on a blog because that’s not why I began blogging years ago. I have always been a personal blogger. In the past I wrote about my life, and left the water cooler web professionals to muse about the industry on their blogs–blogs that I read faithfully. These days I figure that a domain with my name on it deserves to be a place where I can leave my own thoughts—at my own pace.
So Bill needs to fall back, my site stats don’t concern me!
To an extent, Bill is right, in a round about way. I need to at least post regularly. So, that being said, I am going to try my best to be regular around here, and put more effort into shaping what it is I think this place should be.

Hi Liz, welcome back to . . .your site.
I, too, struggle with what to put on my personal web site. I know I want to keep it so that people are directed to it when searching for me. However, I want it to be more than just a marketing tool. Until I figure it out, I use Twitter Tools to collect my tweets into a daily digest.
don’t worry liz. i always check out your site..when you post. that’s 5 times a year lol.
hahahahaha Oh, that’s FUNNY! 😀
Yeah, be on the lookout for Liz’s posts right around the time of The Great Pumpkin and the Charlie Brown Christmas Special, HAHAHAHAHA 😀
@Bill hush!!
@oux: see, i am trying to help my readers out. they don’t have time to play catchup on my daily blog ramblings. I do it for the people.
@Anjuan: Hmm, I might look into Twitter Tools or some such to integrate on my site.
I usually come here when I need motivation or laughter about some hot mess incident on the web – welcome to the east coast btw Liz!! woohoo!
