A few months have passed since I announced the end of this blog – well, a little bit prematurely as I have to admit now. Back in summer I was just sick of blogging, especially tech blogging, but I never really stopped reading blogs and tried to keep myself informed as much as I could without wasting too much time. The virus is still there, I guess. ;)

So, what will change with this relaunch? I will focus more on everything “open” – OpenID, of course, the open web, the so called Open Stack, and everything else related to it. I wrote about those topics before and currently there is quite a lot happening in this realm, so it is probably consistent to write about it.
Music, football, and other off-topic stuff won’t get mentioned here anymore. Some people might regret this decision but I think it should be clear to readers what the blog is about. I have seen this blog being linked as a source for netaudio reviews. That is certainly misleading, even if I reviewed releases in the past but it wasn’t really a focus.

I would be very happy if some of the old regular readers were still around. It would be great to read some comments from familiar names. Nostalgia, you know. Though I don’t mind new readers as well. So, let’s see how this blog will shape but please, don’t expect a new post each day. I don’t want to put too much pressure onto myself. Also there are still some glitches with the new theme but hopefully I will be able to fix them rather soon.

Oh, I almost forgot: Happy New Year to all of you!

  • Nice to see that you re-start your activities. Personnally I will take your active return to the blogging scene as a first positive impression from the new year 2009. Yes, I know that your post is dated in the old year but sometimes we have to be generous with those details. To make a long story short: Welcome back Carsten :)) ..
  • cool! guten rutsch.
  • very nice to see you back at blogging again. The openstack is what is happening.
  • Welcome back :-)
  • Indeed, only familiar names here. :)

    @Markus Sowada: I was thinking about scheduling the post for Jan 1 but then decided it was stupid. It was ready to publish, so I hit that magic button. :)

    @Frank: I know, you have an OpenID so use it. In that case your comment were not held for moderation. ;)
  • Ich werde den NotSoRelevant Feed aber weiterhin abonniert lassen… die Hoffnung stirbt zuletzt :)


    Als hätte ich es gewusst ;)

    Schön dass du dich doch noch umentschieden hast! Freue mich auf deine Artikel hier und auf spreadopenid.org!
  • @Carsten Thx for the hint. Done :-)

    Welcome Back!!!

    Hoffe mein Server verkraftet das auch wieder.

    Notfalls ziehen wir deine Domain auf den neuen um, der hat mehr Power.

    Gruß
    Lars
  • Wäre ja eigentlich schon lustig, wenn mein Blog, einen Server in die Knie zwingen würde. ;)

    @Frank: Well done!

    Alles eine Frage von lausig programmierten Wordpress Plugins und php fcgi Fehlern. Dann geht das fix.

    Bin ich froh wenn PHP irgendwann mal nicht mehr verwendet wird. :-)
