Start blogging (again...) and my love for the Internet

OK, so I getting into more and more social networking, not only have I been on Google+ for few weeks, but I got myself onto Twitter, and now I feel like I've just wired the Internet into myself! lol

Well you can thank Carra Riley on Google+ for that since she made the suggestion; now as it says in title, it's not like I haven't done this before, however the difference being is that before I used to review games. This time I'm going to blog about almost anything!

So where do I start? Well... it's 2:20 am I can't sleep, I'm addicted to the Internet! lol! We'll start here! The Internet! Great thing it is, though I will admit it's full of unnecessary junk, sort of like TV, but unlike TV I can always find something I want, or like. You see I have this complex, and I'm not afraid to admit it, and I'm calling it the "King Complex". I'm the kind of guy who wants everything his way, the one in control, in the 20th century, the remote control was that, you could control the TV without the need of getting off your sofa. Whilst in the 21st century, the internet allows you to read, see, watch, listen to anything you want without a schedule, perfect for me! I hate organisation! lol! Have it available when I want to see it without that nagging "You gotta go this now" or "Better prepare for it" vibe! That's the beauty of the internet, it's there for when I want it, rather than I have to be there for that latest episode of Doctor Who. Besides the content I see on TV is just stupid. Channel 5 has bought Big Brother, when 4 should have destroyed it ages ago! Commercials and adverts are getting terrible, and the quality in shows are going down and I have to pay more for more channels! Now... as for the internet, commercials and Adverts are blocked by the power of Ad Block Pro, and if I want to see something new and different, I don't get charged for it! Thank god!(Even though I'm agnostic, lol) that we still have Internet Neutrality! Because if we didn't, we'd be paying for web sites like getting new channels on a cable or satellite TV service! and don't get me started on TV Licences! D:< As far as I'm concerned I enjoy the fact that the internet we have now is what it is, even if it might be full of crap, we can change it, unlike TV, which at this point is completely full of crap!

  1. Ian... great back in the saddle post! I like your writing style. Very specific and interesting.. Great to connect with the King!
    Like the blue Cosmic background on the site!
    The name is intriguing... Maybe do a 3 part series post on 1.Who is Goobs... include how you selected the name in 2... talk about the places you have lived.. very interesting.. I saw them on your about page on Google+ then 3 do a post on what you do at the company you work at.. then anyone reading will know you you are...

    I saw your post on the recycled game from reused products..... I would start a video blog too.. that you can embed here with posts... Show the products you are using to create the game... I hear there is almost a cult following of Atari things.. so be sure and tag the blog post with Atari and all the other party you used.

    I think the name should be the same.. if you want to Brand GoobsSays... great youtube channel.. do an introduction video of who you are and what the channel is about.. then do the video on that recycle game you are building... each week do a Goobsays video and embed it in your blog here.. sharing what is new and exciting that you learned this week.

    Fill out your about me page here on the Blogger site include the link to your twitter account and your Google+ page.. you can build followers and share your knowledge..... you have something great to share and I appreciate seeing you take the ideas and then going forward!

    You ROCK!

    Can't wait to see more!
