Do you remember MySpace? I do, it was my first attempt at social media. I remember the hours I took preparing my site, the coding that was necessary. I set it up, worked on getting followers and then Facebook landed on my radar. It was hours of work thrown under the bus. But, I was reminded of all of that as I was walking through the farmer's market and heard that particular song playing, "Somebody to Love" by Jefferson Airplane.
Having a song play automatically in the background was the one thing that I haven't been able to replicate on other social media sites. Good or bad, I loved that feature. But times change and I'm sure looking back, I would have been gritting my teeth at hearing that song for the millionth time. I'm guessing it would have been removed long ago. Still...
Through my career I've seen social media changes, websites change, even blogs change. Although, I do have to say that this blog has been around since 2007. It's actually officially my oldest site on the web. Even my website, which has been around almost as long, has changed hosting sites, looks - you name it. Through all of that change, it was here, especially in the early days, that I've documented much of my writing journey. But this blog has been more than that. It's gone on trips, becoming a travel journal and it's been a bit of a life journal too.
But on the topic of retro music - What's your favourite song, retro or otherwise? Let me know here or on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Author.RyshiaKennie/
My fave oddly isn't Somebody to Love but Dream On by Aerosmith.
Fave or not - take a listen to "Somebody to Love".
