*A World of Snippets*About 10 years ago, I met Internet for the first time, through AOL. I would occasionally browse the net to find something homework-related, but that was it– I didn’t even had internet at home, my best friend would allow me to use her computer once in a while. Later, when I was in Jr. High, about 6 or 7 years ago, I was told by one of my teachers to get an e-mail address and I began using the MSN IM once in a while. I began to think that Internet was useful and really cool, but it was barely 4 years ago when I fell in love with it… and with the computers.

Through this 4 years, I’ve had dozens of… mini-blogs (so to speak), but I’ve only had two serious attempts at a formal blog. The first one, “Alteregos en la Blogosfera”, was a MSN Space that I updated regularly for about a year and a half; but then I learned HTML and a bit of PHP and discovered that there were better things (faaaaaaar better, indeed) than the MSN Social Network. And the second one, A World Of Snippets, was hosted and powered by Blogger.com… and it is still there, as a matter of fact.

I have absolutely nothing against Blogger.com (I mean, it’s a Google thing… and I LOVE Google), but I have been thinking a lot and all those thoughts led me to a conclusion: I need to start a third blog. The reasons are many: for example, though I do like Blogger, I think WordPress can give me a lot more liberties. Plus, now I can have my own domain (yay!) but not now, sadly… I need to save up some money.

Also, my life has changed drastically in the last two months and maybe this is one of the ways for me to show it… I mean, two months ago I was finishing high school, I was single and I had no job. And now, I’m in the University, I have a brilliant job and a great boyfriend… But I’ll talk about this in the next post.

For now, before I go, I welcome you to A World Of Snippets v. 2.0 (I really like the name of my blog so I’m not changing it)! Oh, and also: every entry I posted on AWOS 1.0 was always written in two languages (english and spanish); I’ll keep updating this new AWOS on both languages, but the posts won’t be the same anymore, i.e., I may write about one thing in the english section of AWOS and about a completely different matter in the spanish section. This is because I realized that some things are absolutely irrelevant to one of the languages sometimes and also, some stuff is hard (or even impossible) to translate, such as certain jokes or puns.

Anyway, be welcome (again) and I hope this new AWOS can be of interest to you and if it is, please don’t forget to leave a comment. Feedback is very much appreciated =)

I’m off!
