Extrospective

In the fledgling moments of birth, this blog has rapidly gone through several iterations of title. I started it on a subdomain of mine that read my.spayce.com – which I’ve had set up on my domain since I registered the domain. But no sooner than I’d published the first entry I realised that I didn’t want my own blog to have any vestiges of similarity to “myspace”, so I moved it to this subdomain – www.pixielation.com.

And the first name was also quickly changed from Introspective to Extrospective – I don’t plan to give you a tour of the murky depths of my psyche, rather it’s my take on the things going on external to me that I wish to share.

But I am not taken by that word either – the meaning is good, but the word is somewhat clumsy. So I am pondering why I am not using “Creative spayce” as a title. It’s the url, afterall, and it’s quite appropriate to what I hope to achieve. The question might be – what if I fail to actually be creative.

Since the heading image is still in flux, I’ll wait until I create a new image to make a firm decision on the name. There is a bumble bee in the backyard that I am trying to photograph for this specific purpose. He’s just not co-operating at the moment!
