The blog series “A Cyberspace Inquisition” was created to share the interesting content that I would discover throughout my journey of browsing the Internet. Each issue would start off with a short paragraph highlighting a theme (e.g. imagination, wonder, insight, etc.), then list the featured content links each with short description. The main goal was to show the joy, excitement of what can be discovered online all in a nice short format as in TLDR (too long; didn’t read).
Contemplation
Quite some time has past since the last issue of “A Cyberspace Inquisition”, and I’ve been giving it a lot of thought recently to decide whether to continue it or to end the series. Even though there were only five issues ever released I began to no longer enjoy the process. I struggled to come up with a theme to write about, and the name of the series never really worked for me. I don’t know why, it just didn’t feel right. One thing is for certain, I enjoyed the aspect of sharing, and promoting the amazing people that create the various content of software, music, art, stories, etc.
A list of all the past issues…
- A Cyberspace Inquisition #1: The Beginning (Mar 24, 2021)
- A Cyberspace Inquisition #2: Impressions (Mar 28, 2021)
- A Cyberspace Inquisition #3: Insight (Apr 4, 2021)
- A Cyberspace Inquisition #4: Wonder (Apr 24, 2021)
- A Cyberspace Inquisition #5: Imagination (May 25, 2021)
Conclusion
What I’ve decided to do is close the chapter on the series of “A Cyberspace Inquisition”. With me not liking the name and having to write a theme, I think in the end this is best. Plus let’s be honest, it’s been almost 5 months since the last issue. Too much time has past.
A New Beginning
A new series will start that will allow for me to focus on sharing freely, and allow the reader to discover the vast joy the Internet can bring. The format will remain short, and to the point. It will still have a list of featured links with brief descriptions. I’m uncertain exactly when this new series will start, but what I can tell you is that name of the series will be called “Little Bits”. The idea is “Little” refers to the short format, and bits, as in a computer bit yet inferring to each item shared as a bit. The title has more meaning to me, easier to say, and remember. So stay tuned for the first issue of “Little Bits” coming soon.
