The rusty bottle opener of truth

Why do I blog? I'm not actually that much of a sharing person; I don't feel the need to share my life, my thoughts, my feelings with people too much, but yet I do blog.

Part of it is an emphasis on 'that much'; I do have some desire to share.

But a lot of it is a desire to share interesting things with people, to go "Look at this! Isn't it awesome/interesting/terrible!". And whilst a lot of that can be covered by my linkposts, or by the amusing photos I occasionally link, I do also like writing out something that'll hold people's attention, that they'll find interesting, I just often find myself stuck for a starting point.

Like, for instance, twenty minutes ago, when I was going "What the hell do blog about today?" And whilst andrewducker's suggestion "Your inability to think of interesting things to write about?" was initially annoying, it sparked off this, which is something worth spending a blogpost about.

So, I'm going to ask you — my dear readers — for suggestions of subjects for the rest of the month. I've already had the suggestion of talking about my work, I'll probably delve into it at some point but any specific questions people have about what I do or the nature of Unlock Democracy would be a help with that.

But beyond that, what do you want to read me pontificating about?
