The internet is based on text. We all write. Some write code, others write books, someone else is composing an email, and the person next to them is chatting with someone on social media. Text. Raw, simple letters. We look at them millions of times a day and don’t even think about it. We use them every day. Even if we don’t write online, something writes for us. It’s a machine. Every movement of our cursor. Every click. Every video playback, photo opening, or program launch is an avalanche of zeros and ones.

Even this text is part of it, descending somewhere from the barely visible and hidden in the shadow of the slope of the great mountain called the Internet.
We invented the World Wide Web. We built it from scratch. In the process, entire industries were created, many innovations changed the world, turned it upside down and destroyed it on an unprecedented scale.
And those letters and numbers are still there. They are still the basis of everything. Isn’t it beautiful that in the process of progress we haven’t killed what was original? Isn’t it beautiful that we can still write? Isn’t it beautiful that everything depends on it?
Let’s write. Start blogs. Write on them. Let’s rebuild the blogosphere and make it more valuable than ever before.
Don’t make it a New Year’s resolution, because most of you won’t be able to fulfill or maintain it anyway. Just start blogs and write. What’s the harm in that?
