Why I Blog

July 14, 2006 · 8 comments

Minic Rivera over at The Blogging Times has a nice feature on his blog where he takes prominent bloggers and asks them why they blog. In the past he has posed this question to people like Craig Newmark of Craiglist. Minic asked me the same question recently, so go check it out.

PaulStamatiou.com runs on the Thesis Theme for WordPress

How smart is your Theme?  How good is your support? Check out ThesisTheme for WordPress.

Thesis is the search engine optimized WordPress theme of choice for serious online publishers. If you’re a blogger who doesn’t understand a lot of PHP, Thesis will give a ton of functionality without having to alter any code. For the advanced, Thesis has incredible customization possibilities via Thesis hooks.

With so many design options, you can use the template over and over and never have it look like the same site. The theme is robust and flexible enough not only to accommodate a site like PaulStamatiou.com, but also to enable the site to run far more efficiently than it ever has before.

I used the Scribe WordPress plugin and service to optimize this blog post for SEO.

I especially like your comment about not sulking around the dorms, Paul. I began blogging for almost the exact same reason. It’s amazing how many things you can write about while sitting bored, alone in your dorm room.

Actually Paul I’m going to contradict you a bit. I actually get inspired to blog by talking to hilarious people and then I blog thereafter. Sitting around does very little for me, although sitting next to an animal or pet sometimes helps. (you know scratch their ear and stuff)

The internet is too big and lonely to write on it alone. People and weird conversations inspire me. But whatever works.
