internet scavenger

so...these last few days i've felt like a detective of sorts. i've been roving the wide world of the world wide web, hunting down addresses and names and numbers and information. i even found a lot of what i was looking for.

you know...it's amazing the things you can find on the internet. it really is. i love the internet. have you ever googled your own name to see what you can find about yourself? it's kinda fun. i found some interesting things about myself--including some stuff i didn't even know existed!

but, yeah...i feel lately as though i'm being absorbed by this informatic mass of digital puke that ensnares our society in a tangled web of silliness. it makes me tired.
don't get me wrong...i love the internet. i love finding all sorts of new and exciting things through web 2.0...but it makes me sad sometimes to see how much of their lives people waste away doing nothing "useful" and "productive" in the world...just wasting away in front of their screens.

and speaking of which, i've really got to get away from this desk. i've been here WAY too long...
