Voting with my feet

I can't say I'm disenchanted.  After all, that explicitly states that I was enchanted to begin with, and, sadly, such is not the case.  I have never really liked Facebook, but I put up with it as it was the easiest way to maintain contact with friends and family.

Ok, it did that pretty well.  What's driven me over the edge is simply the way and direction Facebook is changing.  More and more commercial crap, and it's harder and harder to control my own content.  So, while it's their right to do what they like with their site and software, it's my right to do something about it.

To wit, I am resurrecting my blog here at Surly Hermit.

And, because I'm obsessive, I'm going to be doing my best to bring my photos and posts over here, too.  Obviously, this means that there is going to be some repetition.  For this, I apologise, but you should all be used to it- it is the campaign season, after all.  You should be completely numb to meaningless repetition... and, to be honest, pretty meaningless content.

Take that as you will.
