Overhauling

Once a comfort zone is found, it is hard to get out of it. In a way, I have found a plateau with this blog. I just show up now and then to talk about last weekend movies or the book I finished reading without any real periodicity. Lyx was just pointing out that at least every other day I read an interesting article on optics or quantum optics, and every other month I finish reading a book. Her idea is that I should take advantage of this and push myself into a blog writing schedule with something like this:

  • Last weekend movies, once a week, dealing with the movies and tv-series we get our hands on. 
  • Last week paper, once a week, dealing with a research paper that caught my eye the most.
  • Last month book, once a month, dealing with the latest addition to my personal library. 

As always, she got me thinking; the endpoint being that I always thought of this blog as dealing with consumerism—in the end it is about a starving vagabond and when you are starving you just need to consume—, venting off, give a little publicity to the papers we wrote, and sharing the things I found useful. Thus the promise to myself is to overhaul the blog, get a working schedule to implement truly periodical posts and somehow organize all of this mess. 

I am not sure how long it will take to get this running in a tight schedule, but I know I will do it with help from here and there. For the rest, it will be aperiodic:
  • Blog, entrances with commentaries, opinions, rants and whatnot that cross my mind.
  • Beholder, not-so-crappy pictures every now and then.
  • Daydreams, posts with fiction that now and then wants to get out of my mind.
  • Ars Technica, tutorials or reviews of things that make my life easier. 

I think that's gonna be the whole thing for the following months. 

May life be life and you be you!
