    <content type="html">I apologize for the perfunctory and belated nature of this notice, but ...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;... I have a problem. My life habits are ill-suited to being a regular Internet denizen - like an alcoholic, I invariably binge, rather than partake, and I find myself interrupting or putting off things I need to do, like working, sleeping, eating, to refresh, archive-trawl, and read and comment.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Given this, I'm dropping all of it - webcomics, weblogs, Wikis, and fora - for the foreseeable future, and I will probably never be active in the way I was. There is a chance that I may revive a few of the less busy feeds, the more idiosyncratic and compelling feeds, to read in small bits at irregular intervals - I was thinking &lt;a href="http://www.goonpatrol.com/comic/"&gt;Plan B&lt;/a&gt;, possibly &lt;a href="http://electrickeet.com/13R/"&gt;Thirteen Ribbons&lt;/a&gt; - but this blog and the other will probably fall fallow, and my Twitter, definitely.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Be well.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(P.S. &lt;a href="http://terpconnect.umd.edu/~robin/bookmarks20091206.html"&gt;My final bookmarks file&lt;/a&gt;.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=packbat&amp;ditemid=276988" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/&gt; comments</content>
