Hell yeah. I love it how this is like a "living", changing thing. Robots, comedy, computers, politics of all flavors. Very interesting. I guess this is the first moblog I've been really involved in.

Wrong use of tech terms I believe. A moblog is a blog of mobile phone photographs.

Huh, I thought a moblog was of like a mob of bloggers, oh well.
