I unquit blogging.

Rea­sons:

1. I have started col­lect­ing a bunch of articles/posts/etc. that I have stuff to say about, and blog­ging is the best forum for that.

2. I got accepted to the PhD pro­gram of my dreams, and can stop wor­ry­ing too too much about hav­ing my per­sonal info & views float­ing around online (at least until the job search in 4 or 5 years).

3. Rather than using up my energy for writ­ing, blog­ging puts me in a writ­ers’ frame of mind, more of the time. The addi­tional prac­tice is ben­e­fi­cial, whether or not any of the actual con­tent has merit.

4. It is cool to have a blog.

QED. I am back.
