Tired of the internet Somehow I am suffering from information overload these days. I don't know how many blogs I am following but I suppose it must be more than a hundred. Then I read a couple of news sites and my extensive weekly paper. And a Sunday paper. It is all too much. Sometimes I would just like to shut myself in without any connection whatsoever to any media. I don't find the time to blog and to think about myself and my life. Though I have a lot of ideas of themes I could write about. But blogging seems to be such a futile exercise in the moment. In the last weeks I forced myself to post something every two days but I usually posted links as I didn't feel like writing something. The strange thing is that finding worthy links takes much more time than writing something yourself. And it is much more frustrating as you have to go through such a lot of boring stuff, you don't have the satisfaction of creating something yourself and there is hardly any feedback. Yes, feedback is the magical word. I didn't get too much in the past weeks and I would be grateful to know if anyone cares for this weblog. There are almost one thousand visitors per day but how many readers are there and how many people are regulars? Sorry for this boring and depressive post. Tonight I will see Do Make Say Think (thanks for the tip Wortmetz) from Toronto who are on the same label as Godspeed YBE! at the university and tomorrow Sonic Youth who will play in Cologne. And I am very much looking forward to those concerts. So I guess I will have something to write about soon.
