Fading Memories

I am still not convinced

That centralization is the way for the internet to go. Even though I work for Hyves, where we've got a silly number of messages, photos and chats stored on our servers, I still think the internet was intended to be distributed. Like email. Like the web. Like usenet.

But, well, I've got a hyves account now. I'm on linkedin. I'm on identi.ca (which forwards to twitter, which used to forward to Hyves, but I disabled that again). And now I'm on deviant art.

Our Krita Season of KDE student, Vera Lukman sort of prodded me -- we got talking about drawing and things. And I realized that I haven't touched my paints since we came to live in this house, in 2007. Probably more like not since 2006, even. I've done some sketching... Last year.

The question now is, of course, will this stimulate me to draw more? Will it finally make me use a computer for drawing? Will I get rich from selling prints?

What will happen to all my passwords if kwallet ever mangles my wallet? (Not that it has ever done so, touch would...)
