Ok, well I'll be one of the first to admit I've never heard of RSS feeds until maybe a month ago. But I'm guessing by my research that they're just all over the place now. Which apparently makes it easier to read up on things without going through multiple websites and delays in page loading. Oh, btw, I have dial-up. I refuse to go and pay $40 for DSL or some cable opperation, but that's another blog story some other day.
Anyhow, as I'm finding out more and more about RSS and how it relates to blogs and news; it reminds me abit of when Bulliten Boards or BBS's were all the big thing way back in the 80's and very early 90's. Back then you could get the news of the day, with firsthand accounts, just by signing onto your local BBS. And we all considered it amazing that you could just type in "news from Texas" and some BBS would show up with names and contacts in and around Texas. And if they didn't know something, someone else in the BBS did. Technology sure has come a long long way in 15 or so years. So, we're about to join up with the latest "new thing" to hit the computer airwaves. Who knew we'd be doing "instant" news and "instant" info 15 years ago on the BBS boards.
Well, hello from me. My first time ever trying this blog idea out, and I have just about no clue what so ever as to what I am doing. Hello to the world! (insert silly guy waving here) I guess I should really figure out how this is going to link to my site now. Oh, by the way, the site (www.thewalkingguy.com) isn’t all the way up yet, so it may look a little funny. Tomorrow I have to get up for work again after a three day weekend. I get to walk a mile and a half to catch a bus, then ride the bus 20 minutes to get to work. And I get to do that in reverse coming home. That’s how I got the name of the site I started. So, that will be it for this entry. Hopefully I get better at this blogging thing. See ya later.
