			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I had someone ask me today &#8220;But Bytey, what is the point of this strange website you&#8217;re constructing? You complain about <a href="http://forum.bytesmasher.com">dead forums</a>, but it seems to me that to attract an audience, one needs a purpose&#8230; no?&#8221;</p>
<p>And to this I responded: There is no point. No porpoise.</p>
<p>Quite simply, I have no goal in creating this site. Well, there is complete world domination, but that was really an afterthought. My philosophy these days has been &#8220;build it and they will scratch their heads&#8221;. Is this some dadaist concoction, meant to astound and annoy? No, that it is neither.</p>
<p>Lets look at the facts:</p>
<ol>
<li><a href="http://forum.bytesmasher.com">I has a forum</a></li>
<li>I has som blogginz</li>
<li><a href="http://bytesmasher.com/audio">I has som musics</a></li>
<li><a href="http://bytesmasher.com/img">I has som bad picturz</a></li>
<li>I has som writinz I&#8217;ve yet to post</li>
</ol>
<p>And now you can see. Pointful? I think not.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m not trollin. I&#8217;m BYTE-Smasher.</p>

<p>I&#8217;m sad to say, there is absolutely no action on my <a href="http://forum.bytesmasher.com/">forums</a>. None. And by none, I mean there is some, but it&#8217;s mostly me&#8230; and even I am guilty of being a horrible slacker, and lurking not enough.</p>
<p>This would be an issue of great concern in times past, but these days, I know that my self worth cannot be measured simply by my popularity on some website I throw together for the heck of it&#8230; if that were the case, sad cat would be a sad, sad cat indeed.</p>
<p>No, I&#8217;m better than that&#8230; I know that my lack of hawt website action is nothing more than an indication that I have very productive friends who have lives packed with more activities and tasks than normal people could handle. They&#8217;d have nobel prizes by now, but they&#8217;re just too damned busy to meet with the award committee.</p>
<p>And those that aren&#8217;t so busy have become zombie slaves to the evil entity known as &#8220;the facebooks&#8221;. That&#8217;s right, bloggerdom has a new enemy, and it&#8217;s face is booklike. It seems that &#8220;hooking up with old friends&#8221; is now more important than hooking up with old friends. Damn you, friends. Damn you to a room. A room filled with sad kittens and mudkips. I herd u leik mudkips.</p>
<p>So will my <a href="http://forum.bytesmasher.com/">forums</a> end up thriving like they did in the hayday of my extended highschool career? The answer, my avid readers, is no. And I shouldn&#8217;t take offense to it. I&#8217;m simply one person fighting against the interests of many. Simply one cog on a lone gear in the machine called &#8220;the blogoblagosphereacube&#8221;.</p>
