I am such a ****, I post all of these personal blogs where I speek about my life, then I get into this blogging thing and I find out how popular it is and I get scared. So scared or embarrassed about my real life that I start cropping.
What am I doing with this thing, this tool that helps me describe life? When I go back and read what I had typed earlier I found honesty and relevance in my journal. Then I made this journal a blog, something projected then something reflected. Like a projector I tried to show it to everyone but just like a projector the output is never as good as the origin.
I had made my journal an advertisement for the last week. Cropping what I wanted, shading and masking what I didnÃt want shown. You really might not see anything but I do. It gets me so irritated that I havenÃt posted what I intended to do when I made this blog.
Is it because I am not being personal? How is a personal Blog made?
I am really struggling…

After messing around with my blog, I think I finished it today. I have been tinkering around with it so much that now I have to stop and focus my energy somewhere else.
In the process of making this blog I found a new hobby, and that is movable type. ItÃs easy, challenging, creative and absurd all in one.
Movable type is a program of sorts that runs on my host to provide blog’s, like the one you are reading right now. ItÃs extremely customizable making it a very unique system.
Movable Type is what FreeSpeek users will have access to. If you can settle for the default styles that MT includes then you are ready to roll but if you want to customize get ready for a new hobby.
I have been working so hard to get FreeSpeek up and running I have been going insane.
Personally I hate forwards. As a tech guy I see all of them as virus riden spam and I delete them as soon I get a chance. This one I scanned that my mother sent me who has been coming to the Bridge lately. I read it knowing this was just an ordinary christian e-mail that says the same thing as all of them, and I was impressed not by the message but by whom sent it.

I have started the slow process of creating an online community @ FreeSpeek.com. I want it to be a community where people can speak freely and post whatever they would like. Spymac.com has inspired me with what I would like the community to be. Forums for everything you could imagine, free e-mail, free bloging and my favorite galleries. Spymac has way too much for what I am going to do but why not have lofty goals.
My plan is to give out free blogs to who ever would like one. Included will be a subdomained blog for instance dansblog.freespeek.com and not www.freespeak.com/dansblog.html. I will be giving pop e-mail accounts out to each user also. The galleries will be something that I will need to work toward because for now I havenÃt even mapped the site. The blogs will be fully customizable through movable type with movable type features including a MT it! Feature for windows IE users and a post to blog feature that can be used with every browser Mac or pc except Safari.
I hope I get a lot of people to sign up and the best way to sign up is just comment on this entry and leave me your e-mail address (your email will not be posted to the site it will just be sent to me).
Thank you All.
