If you see Gary Kasparov, tell him Ruy Lopez sends his regards

Up until now blogging was something that happened only to other people. But after a number of years of sitting like a wall flower on the side lines of the dance floor watching everyone else enjoy themselves I have decided to pluck up the courage and strut my stuff. A plan which did not work the first time I tried it, a long story about a school disco and special brew.
What has become apparent from my journey through the bloggasphere is the realisation that, while it is certainly not true that there is 'nothing new', it is certainly a case that there is little remembered. People may look back in years to come and read blogs as our archaeologists read ancient scrolls today. What kind of world will they piece together from the remaining fragments of the planet's blogs? Time will tell.
