Roxor Blog

What's up with roXor blog, and why does the world need yet another blog then?

I have been blogging since 2000, since really before the word blogging came into the public consciousness. Life intervened and I have not been able to run a true blog for a few years now.

The best blog I ever published was a fairly high profile music blog that I sold a few years ago - so I wanted to get back to that. But this time around I wanted to include movies, videos, artists, etc. so I decided to publish an entertainment blog.

And not that kinda entertainment blog.

Most entertainment blogs are there to tell you about what Britney or Whitney are up to, who is the latest bimbo to have a topless photo set loose on the interwebs, etc. We want to publish an entertainment blog about real music, movies, and artists.

That's all well and good but what about that roxor?

Well, first roXor is a palindrome like Aoxomoxoa and I always liked that...

Second, I've been through the phases of roxor ( or r0x0r) being something leet, to something that I have been called as a derogatory comment, to something that had jumped the shark, to a phrase that became sort of an inside joke.

So while I am using it as something cool (I was backstage with Korn, it was so ROXOR), it also carries some baggage w/ it because it was once trendy - so it was a natural choice for my new entertainment blog.
