Get organized LOL HD DVD!

Getting things straight.
First of all, in light of the crazy HD-DVD/Digg jubilee going on, I motion to make HDDVD forever part of geek acronymia, right up there with WTF, BBQ, and IUD. .. OK. Maybe not IUD.

Next, I want to muse about the content of ICONOCLASTEROID.
It began as a simple foray into blogging. I'd always hated blogs. It seemed like an ersatz way of proffering oneself for social approval: "Look, I have opinion! And I have problems!" I was always a little more impressed with Doogie Howser's computer diary...
Well, here I am, and I find this blog thing is, in fact, a lot of fun.
Kind of like smoking. I hated smoking. Now I don't. (No further information needed other than that I think the blog stigma is still more shameful.)
Cutting to the médulla of my myopia: I know that in order to generate hits (and, thus potential exposure to those who sign paychecks), I should probably subject me and my scattergram content to some kind of fey thematic bandpass filter. (I should probably also toss the grandiloquisms -- and if you intend to 1-up me with "sesquipedalian": sod off.)
So.
I now have a blog for Iceland.
I now have a blog for Japan.
I have a tumblelog for random postings.
My "professional" site will be up once I'm more comfortable with Wordpress. (Don't worry, "professional" in no way implies being gelded of my astringent exuberance and compelling non sequiturs). At any rate, it will be dealing with contemporary media, ludology, and rare/classic/import console gaming.
If ICONOCLASTEROID were to follow what one might expect (rebellion Asteroids[classic arcade game]), it would trample on some of my "professional" territory.
So, I think I'll be sticking with the flippant first bit and allow it to be an outlet for more suppressed, asocial nodes of my persona. Shit, man -- look out.
I've also really wanted to play with supershort fiction. Maybe I'll blend the lines a bit.
In any case, I hope that ICONOCLASTEROID becomes a go-to locus for semantic havoc, culture jamming, quotidian glitching and some occasional bitching.
Cheers!
