How Web 2.0 Can You Go?

Let's see: in the past few years, I've opened social networking and bookmarking accounts; downloaded podcasts that I've never had the time to listen to thoroughly; used YouTube as a point of entertainment, reference, and even for a few business occasions here and there; and written and edited several Wikipedia entries.

Have I caught up with this fast-moving factor they call Web 2.0? No!

Will I ever? Doubtful! But I aim to be one step closer today by beginning a blog. I used to attempt to make journal entries on MySpace, but that didn't seem to work out. Maybe I'll be more attentive here in this "Read Spread," the best name I could come up with on short notice, and with the millions out there in this Google-owned entity, to describe a person whose occupational hazards include reading too much.

Logocentrism? Yes! Phallogocentrism
? I'd like to think not, Monsieur Derrida! (God rest his philosophical soul.)

Anyway, here I continue my journey to that next Web 2.0 destination. Will you travel along with me?
