I love that my son is blogging. He’s not going to be interesting to most of my readers, but one thing we have trouble with is communicating. Why? Well, he’s down in Petaluma CA and I’m here in Redmond, WA. Not exactly easy to have a relationship over that distance.
Whenever I see him and ask him what he’s doing in school he says “oh, nothing.” It usually takes a frustrating series of questions to get him to open up even a little bit.
But, now on his blog he says he’s working on a science experiment with water and ice. Ahh, something to talk about. And so it expands.
Oh, Patrick, you should see what happens when Oxygen freezes. It’s fun to freeze a balloon with liquid nitrogen.
What’s very strange is just how many of you are reading my son’s blog and my wife’s blog. Lots of people come up to me and say “hey, my wife threw my cell phone too.”
What? He’s not using MSN spaces? Did young Patrick choose blogger on his own or did he ask you for advice on which blogging service to use?

Spaces needs a complete overhaul.

What do you feel about the fact that he’s using Blogger, rather than MSN Spaces? Not trying to be a smartass, just interested.

Joe: he chose it on his own.
David: I don’t mind. I’m on a service running on Linux. I actually find it’s good because I’m learning about the blog services in an intimate way that I couldn’t do without having things on it. My wife is on MSN Spaces. My book blog is on TypePad. So, we have the major blog services covered.

While I really enjoy blogging about business, technology and Ireland, I don’t think I’d like my personal and family life to be on the radar as much as yours Robert. Fair play that you’re so open, I guess the thought of being under a constant internet microscope gives me the shivers!!!

Hope he doesn’t go to a private school, or he may get suspended.
