I miss the wild west sort of days of the World Wide Web, even though I was never truly around for them. There are the faintest echoes of a time before time, where I actually used the bookmarks feature of the browser on more than one website to visit on the regular.
For a while now, I’ve maintained a web presence pretty solely through one social media platform or another. Facebook, then Instagram, and then of course Reddit counts… But in the same way I will never own property, I’m far from landed on the megaliths of the internet. I’ve paid digital rent for profiles for years; paid with time and advertising clicks and untold sums of data whose value cannot and should not ever be defined.
This site is pretty concise in its cost structure. Just under $140 at present, getting two years of this domain name and four years of hosting. Works for me. I like it when things are upfront.
One Duck’s Goose. It’s a blog, or will be, or has the ideations of being. Like my typewriter, it feels a little old-fashioned in the modern world. I’ll put photos and ramblings and life updates here. Might even be that someone will read them!
Be kind. Stay well. Wear a helmet on any heads you happen to have.
