Re-envisioning the blog

It's been a while since I've posted on a regular basis. It might be (1) I don't think anyone reads this anymore, (2) I'm just bored with it myself, (3) I'm too busy, or (4) all of the above.

Though many of my friends have called blogging a waste of time, I've found it a productive way (in the past) to pen down my thoughts, mark memorable events, and keep in touch with people. When I'm really lucky, the blog posts turn into opportunities to dialogue with people.

So I think I'm going to try to make some time to blog again. But I'm also considering switching blogging programs to freshen it up. I know people use typepad, wordpress, etc. Any suggestions?
