No way, you peeps are actually viewing my blog!
I felt like I was throwing a multi-colored grain of sand in the ocean of
the internet and saying "fetch"! I was happy to see the steady but
small viewing when I initially checked my stats, and then I realised
that each time I viewed my own blog it logged me! Well I guess I've
always been my own biggest fan, and this is no exception.
Now I see that I've had views from Russia, Asia and North America, and
that makes this white African one happy camper. Not for the boost of my
ego (cos I'm slave laboring to attain the cardinal virtue of humility
at the moment), but because it shows the potential of the information
revolution to connect people who would never have traversed even 2 of
their 6 degrees of separation.
Last night I was watching a documentary about the dark ages that said
Saint Dominic was one of the most educated people in Europe because he
owned 250 books. It went on to illuminate the lack of illumination due
to little villages being cut off from each other. Would the Bubonic
plague have devastated Europe if a Tweet went out saying "Ouch, stay
indoors!"
It's just another example of the unprecedented age we live in, in which
the sky is the limit when we combine our collective subconscious into
the three letters of "www."
I'll be monitoring this blog more often now, and would appreciate you
subscribing so that I know that there are people out there expecting me
to string more syllables together.
Blessings to the max!
