If you've been reading along, at all, you know that I'm a sucker for organizational tools, gadgets, etc. Ever since I decided that I was "over" Evernote (more out of boredom than anything else), I went off looking for a new cloud notebook. Forget, for a moment, that Evernote really is the only good notebook in the cloud. Forget, as well, that it works just fine on all of the platforms I encounter throughout the day (even my Blackberry).
I tried Tomboy sync'ed through Ubuntu One. I even tried Google Wave. (I felt cool with that one, as if I'd discovered a secret that few had--that is, why to use Google Wave.) And there was a brief look at OneNote on Windows Live. I've used the desktop app for years. Sync'ed folders there, though, are only 2 gigs. Might as well keep using something like Evernote, or a cross-platform solution with Dropbox. (I like the live Office apps. Microsoft seems to be moving in the right direction. But something just seems ... wrong. Not sure, but I can't shake it.)
Then, I found Tumblr. Bingo--a social notebook for anything I want to drop into it.
So, follow along with my Tumblr blog. As I collect stuff that touches a nerve, you'll see it there. (And, I'll be able to find it again later.) As I continue to draft The Centennial Horror, this means you'll have a court-side seat to the whims and winds of my creativity. Why do I sometimes take a strange turn in the middle of a draft, a turn that sets me back by months? Usually, someone like David Icke has posted something that makes me cringe because a) he's really strange, and b) the implications of his claims are truly horrifying, and belong in fiction.
