Yes, it’s true. I’ve all but abandoned this sorry excuse for a blog.
What can I say? With the lack of any resemblance of a social life, other than my dear Twitter friends and my coworkers at the newspaper where I work, I don’t come across much valuable information to share that hasn’t already made the rounds. In fact, I starting to feel like the LAST person to hear anything meaningful or interesting these days. Most of THAT comes from Twitter. Odd, considering I work for a company that banks on providing the latest news and information to this neck of the woods. Indeed, I’m not the information sponge I used to be.
I don’t suppose is such a bad thing though. No one can accuse me of spreading gossip when I don’t have any gossip to spread.
I bought my first iPod in 2004, a white 4th generation 20 gigabyte model. White, because it was the only color option Apple offered at the time. If memory serves, it cost me around $300. At the time, there was also a 40 gigabyte model available, but it was about $100 more. I couldn’t conceive of ever filling a 20G iPod, much less a 40G, so spending the extra $100 seemed somewhat wasteful. (When you consider the 1st generation iPod that came out in 2001 cost almost $500 and only had a 5 gigabyte hard drive, well, you do the math.)
