hello again! talking about tech..

heyo blogosphere! 

firstly, i’m having major issues replying to comments. when i go into the comment section and try to reply, it shows me THIS:


i try to sign in, it wants me to use my main account, then i try to change to my account that this blog is linked to. it looks like success! i go back to my blog and nothing has changed. the cycle continues.

in order to combat this, i shall reply here. not likely you lovely commenters will see this, but such is life. zaph [which i’m assuming is short for zaphod? goated name choice], and lily [who was the one who inspired so many people, myself included, to get into blogging], thank you for your lovely comments! i can’t wait to read more of your bloggings :D

since february last year, i've been thinking a lot [as i assume a lot of other people have been too] about unplugging and going back to more single use devices. i stripped back my iphone to almost a dumbphone [texts, calls, banking, maps, and itunes music], and learned how to convert to mp3 most of my spotify. i’m almost done downloading my playlist to mp3, then i will be rid of spotify and streaming FOR GOOD! :3

i’m working on turning my ipad into just a creative art station, as well as reading, journalling, mind mapping etc.

not sure if you have heard of the idea of “desktop being a destination”? desktop cannot come with us, desktop sits on the coffee table and contains what little social media i have, as well as this blog ehehe :]

on that note, although i do see a lot of people getting ipods, single use music players, i feel still that it is a bit of a trend. and the majority may return to the streaming services that have played the long game to get people hooked and addicted to the sheer amount of available songs and instant gratification. i know that getting access to devices and going back to analog may be worth the “trendy” aspect of it at the moment, if that makes sense? 

but sigh

would love to hear your opinions on the return to analog? and maybe next time i will yap a little more about “the split”, which is a near future social concept a few people have been talking about.

hello blog, it's 2007 in my world

 *taps mic* hello? is this thing on?

one of my goals for the new year was to write. write. WRITE! amd seeing some lovely inspiring tumblrites posting about their blogs on here made me think- why not have a space JUST for yapping? digital journalling? as much as i do love to treat tumblr like my own personal privatenotprivate diary, i think it would be realky cool to have a space just for journalling and sharing!

soooo here i am! it's January 4th where i am. the weather is pleasent. slightly too warm, but we had a really cold night last night to make up for it. about to settle in for the evening, eat a kebab, and play re6 with my husbant. boys night!
