On Year Six

Today my blog turned six, and I tweeted that fact with the following:

My blog http://singe.za.net/ turned 6 today. The fact that I'm tweeting this rather than blogging it is probably significant.

While blogging remains more a more satisfying and useful means of exploring a thought, twitter let's you skip the work and move onto the conversation (sometimes) a bit sooner, but without any decent record of that conversation occurring (twitter's searchable memory is too short). I'm certainly going to continue blogging, but I don't see my throughput increasing much. Luckily, subscribing to an RSS feed is only a cost if there are too many updates ;).

That being said, I think there's been some fun stuff on the blog in the last year, my favourite posts have been:

• Using Maltego to Data Mine Twitter
• Conficker Claims it's first Human Life
• My first guest post - Efficient extraction of data using binary search and ordering information
• Deloitte -> SensePost for a personal milestone (there was another personal milestone, my marriage, but that wasn't much of a blog entry).
