11th
1500 posts later…
Yes, this post is the my 1500th!
The number, how impressive it can be, it just a number at the end of the day. What I’ve been the most proud of, after having blog for more than 5 years now (first in French on Blogger and then in English on Tumblr), is that I always wanted to add a personal note or an opinion on each of my posts, as small or brief it can be.
My friends know me as a big and bold person. I like or I don’t. I’m impressed or I’m not. It’s God, or crap. I’m white or black (even if I think in shade of grey). I’m passionate and I’m always looking for the next big wave or the small thing that would make me smile. I’m hungry for novelty. What I find interesting today is not what I would find interesting tomorrow. I have an opinion or I don’t and if I don’t than I’m not talking about it. People like opinionated people because they are simply damn more interesting than ones who simply follow the crowd.
I barely used Twitter for this reason because I find that only a tiny percentage of people succeed at being interesting under 140 characters. I find extremely difficult to share something of value and find the appropriate space to add an opinion or a structure thought. Tumblr is, in my opinion, the most amazing micro-blogging platform since the blog exists (Justin Hall begun blogging in 1994). It lets you share links, photos, videos, text, quotes, conversations and audios in a breeze. But easy as it is, I will always take the time to express my opinion, my appreciation or write my thoughts about what I share, even if it’s very brief, because I think a collection of things is just boring without a storyline.
For the ones who follow me since I started, I say thank you, and for the ones who have recently started following me, I say welcome and please feel free to share your thoughts with me.
I’m ready for an another 1500 posts now… Stay tuned.
