Di Mortui Sunt is my personal blog and it shows, the things I write about here are varied and mostly unrelated. In an attempt to perhaps focus the blog on a specific topic and to satisfy my own curiosity I visited Wordle and had a Word Cloud made of my blog, (it’s that image up there, at the top. The one that looks like a large grouping, or cloud, of words) two things happened as a result of this: I found a really fun new font, coolvetica, that I will be using in documents; and two, that I write mostly about games.
The question is do I want Di Mortui Sunt to be a blog about videogaming? As much fun as that sounds I don’t see myself contributing much to the discussion, when there are really excellent gaming blogs out there (Gamespite, Dubious Quality, Gamasutra, oh, and my own Gamestooge to name only a few) who are taking the hobby seriously. Okay, so gaming isn’t what this site is about, what about writing? I’ve posted my writing here and I’ve certainly talked about it here. Since, writing is important, as is the written word, I think it’s safe to say that they are apart of what Di Mortui Sunt is. I’ve talked about government here as well and I’ll continue to do so, as I’m involved in it at a professional level and I won’t be able to get around it
I think that I’d like to see Di Mortui Sunt have more focus. I’m writing for myself here, but I’d like to have what I say be of some use to those who read it, even if they take nothing more from it but a smile. Since, I’m lacking inspiration now, besides making this a blog about the lack of Gods, (the title up there says “the Gods are dead” in Latin) and everyone know we have a overabundance of atheist blogs and sites. I’ll ask you dear reader what you think? Perhaps a blog about being spiritual without being religious? Or attempted at living authentically in an inauthentic culture? Or maybe I should just rant here about the black helicopters, Glenn Beck and Area 51? Let me know in the comments.
I’m going to keep writing about games and other things but I think I’ll find a new place to do so.
EDIT: Light colors on a white background doesn’t work very well does it, click for the full-sized image and things will be easier to read
EDIT: I re-named the blog on 8/1/11 to False(B)logic
