Hello Everyone,
My name is Dan, I'm 18 and I'd thought I'd set up a blog. I have never 'blogged' before so I am all very new to this.
The main reason I have decided to make this blog is... I'm not sure tbh. I guess I like the idea of sharing interesting ideas, thoughts, points of view, with people who I'd never normally have an oppurtunity to discuss these sorts of issues with.
Simply, I'm going to be blogging about the stuff that I'm interested in. Politics, Current affairs, History, Philisophical ideas, Scepticism, the Environment, and general other trends which will hopefully become apparent if I catch the blogging bug.
With this blog I like the idea of discussion being very open. I don't want it to be me aimlessely drivelling out rubbish which no one is interested in. Discussion and debate are what I'm looking for I guess.
I guess I've invisaged this blog for being the sort of discussion one would have with friends at a quiet night at the pub. Not overtly intellectual, but still able to put across interesting points and discuss general intellectual and nerdy stuff. Sipping a crabbies with some dry roasted peanuts maybe...
I struggled for a name for the blog. dmcrun comes from my general nickname 'dmc', my initials, and my association with running.
Hope this sounds somewhat interesting to all you potential readers out there.
Please do leave suggestions on topics, general blogging advice etc..
Mac.
