Blog: Dude, it’s been, like, real, OK? But it’s time for me to move on. Fly the nest, you know?

Me: You have a better offer?

Blog: Oh, dude, don’t go there! It’s not like I haven’t learned a lot here in Geezerland. What was that thing you did, desktop punishing?

Me: That was desktop publishing.

Blog: Whatever, but it was kind of like, seminal, you know what I mean? You used a computer to lay out content, even though the UI and delivery protocol (bits! fer crissake) was hopeless. I kind of got the whole framework from the core where it all began. But I just have to move on dude…

Me: It’s that we don’t have video podcasts isn’t it?

Blog: Dude, that’s not the half of it – basically, you got nothing. This pop stand’s looking dark and deserted, if you catch my drift. 2D is so, um, 15th century you know? Monks and parchment and, like, Gutenberg, man. Look at the hit logs, look at your seven readers – only four of them even bother to follow you on Twitter.

Me: So, you’re gone…May I ask where?

Blog: Dunno, but some very wired cats with a hot Facebook game need a blog, bad. I’m gonna go over and wow them.

Me: Do you need a recommendation?

Blog: Um, no, dude, and, uh, if you don’t mind, if someone calls or emails or texts, you never heard of me, OK?

Guess we’re on our own from here on out…
