Am I Famous Now…

What’s the deal about? There’s no deal.

Where’s the big deal? You have been around the blogosphere for some months now. Started just like many other on a free platform and used a traffic exchange service. Your blog got popular. You were cool, 15+ comments on every post.
So?

My design is fubar, can you help me?

You ditched your therapist and pumped your well earned money in some webspace to leave Google. Soon you were a designer too. So, who cares? Does actually anyone give a flying fuck? Or do you mean you could make/release a free design? Cool! Now I am your buddy!
And then, suddenly it all changes.

Can’t I have tags for my groups of friends?

Before you even realized it, you started another blog. And one more. Blogging, and not only reading and commenting on how many times other bloggers peed yesterday, takes more and more of your time. Your IM friend list has grown. But your messenger truly sucks! You love stealth fuctions, but why can’t someone be a VIP and also annoying? Some days you just don’t want those Digg my shit messages to pop up.

You are the biggest user of your search form

Your writing has changed. While communicating you use the url of someone’s blog instead of friend’s name. Matt Cutts becomes http://mattcutts.com/blog/. Not only do you mention real life friends you’ve written about that on your blog, but the reason why you have that search box on all your blogs is because you need it yourself. Do you really think anyone would use it? Anyone else than you? Any other reason to search your blog than plugging an entry you have written months ago in an IM?
Forget it!

You have become a mad content creator

Surely, you have become a mad content creator and people read your shit. They even pay you to write for them. But do they really care about your opinion or are you just building the value of their platform. Paid content or the cheapest slave they could find? You learned to add a line in your email’s signature.

and you use html in your IM. Company names turned into the stock abbreviations. Gone are the days you wondered if people hadn’t forgotten some characters when typing YHOO or GOOG. ADBE IS the correct way of spelling ADBE! Your html and tag knowledge (and usage) expands daily.
Has there actually been a post without code you have written lately?
When did you get laid last time?

Who needs TV when we have Vlogs?

You twitter regularly, not one new service has not caught your eye and you have subscribed to everything new. Every female vlogger has been on your secondary screen. Every day they are actually. Reachability means RSS to you. Usability is a feed reader with built in comment form. Boy can dream.
Dream on!

Hmmm… maybe I should start another blog and drop my job. Therapist! ;-)

And I think now I am off to buy some MFST.
