Alright, so this blog has existed for quite some time, but it has been relatively untouched since its creation. Originally, this text was on the front of the page:
I've been blogging for quite some time now, beginning all the way back in 2008, and I've had varying levels of success. I've done everything from a blog for my classroom to a personal blog to a gaming blog. The gaming blog has been the most successful by far, with over 162,000 page views. Aside from that gaming blog, I've either lost interest in or lost the need for all of the others. As my life has changed, I have dipped in and out of several special interest blog projects. In each case, I was really excited at first and then they just fell by the wayside.
What I've finally decided is that I need one that is generic enough for me to use for the rest of my blogging career. At one point, I used Crazy Teacher Musings for that... but even that blog was connected in too many ways to my profession. When I stopped teaching, it felt a little awkward posting there, so eventually I stopped.
This blog, as creepy as the title may seem, will only be structurally tied to me as a person, rather than my profession or my hobbies. I hope you enjoy the randomness that shows up here! I'm going to be re-posting some of my better content from my scattered blogs here at some point, so that will be an interesting peek back in time.
So welcome, everyone... this is bound to be an interesting venture.
Stalk Josh?!?! Okay, so the title of this blog sounds crazy. This is just a little experiment I'm trying out to see if I can make a blog work with as little effort as possible from me...
Yes, I know there are products out there that will do the same thing... but I want to do it FREE, and I don't want to reuse (aka STEAL) anybody else's content.
You'll see RSS feeds, automatic posts from Facebook, and anything else I do online that I can rig to automatically post here. Feel free to become a "stalker" by adding yourself in the top right sidebar. The more stalkers, the better!
If this works out the way I want it, I'll have an extra buttload of links to my other websites without having to do a whole lot of work... and in theory, that should help beef up my more important blogs in the search engine rankings.So that was the original intent of this blog. Things have changed a bit since then...
