You have to start somewhere and some time

I feel like I would be taking the last train leaving the station. I guess all hip people have started their blogs years ago. Well, here it goes.
The reason for taking this step of opening a blog is a result of a number of things:
1. Moving to Amsterdam: it might be interesting to see if this could create new ways of communicating with people I like or like to get to know.
2. New job: I am responsible for the Media Programme in the European Cultural Foundation. I should start doing what I talk about when mentioning the European public space, i.e. using the new technologies for social purposes.
3. Lots to say: I see things, I read a lot. Have to get it out.
4. Creative Capital conference: I attended a seminar last week here in Amsterdam. Loads of innovative speakers. Loads of examples of innovative blog use.

We´ll see what happens. Thought of using this more for idea-sharing than telling what I bought from the store today. But let´s just start doing.
